Designing reinforced concrete slabs according to Eurocode EN 1992-1-1 requires a systematic approach. The process involves determining the slab geometry, material properties, loads, and then calculating the required reinforcement to ensure both ultimate limit state safety and serviceability requirements are met.
The first three steps establish the foundation of slab design. Step one involves defining the slab geometry and determining whether it's a one-way or two-way slab based on the aspect ratio. Step two requires specifying material properties including concrete strength class like C25/30 and steel reinforcement class like B500B. Step three involves calculating all loads including permanent loads from self-weight and finishes, variable loads from occupancy, and combining them into design loads using appropriate partial factors.
Step four involves structural analysis to determine design moments and shear forces. For simple cases, we can use simplified methods or tables from EN 1992-1-1, while complex geometries require finite element analysis. Step five determines the effective depth by choosing appropriate concrete cover for durability and fire resistance, assuming an initial slab thickness, and calculating the effective depth as the distance from compression face to the centroid of tension reinforcement.
Step six involves designing for bending at the ultimate limit state. We calculate the required area of tension reinforcement using the design moment, material strengths, and lever arm. The reinforcement must satisfy minimum and maximum limits to ensure ductile behavior. Step seven addresses shear design, where we check if the concrete alone can resist the design shear forces. For typical slabs, shear reinforcement is usually not required as the concrete shear capacity is sufficient.
The final steps ensure serviceability and proper detailing. Step eight checks serviceability limits including deflection control through span-to-depth ratios and crack width control through maximum bar spacing requirements. Step nine involves detailed reinforcement layout specifying bar sizes, spacing, anchorage lengths, and cover requirements according to EN 1992-1-1. Step ten completes the process with comprehensive documentation including structural drawings and design calculations, ensuring the slab design meets all safety and serviceability requirements.
