A one-way solid concrete slab is to be used for a simple span
of 18 ft. In addition to its own weight, the slab carries a superimposed dead
load of 50 psf and a live load of 75 psf. Using the strength method with
f ′c = 4 ksi and fy = 60 ksi, design the slab for minimum overall thickness.

(account for weight of slab)
