in engineering a factor of safety is accounted. The reinforcement should be say four times stronger to meet the load so its necessary to evaluate the probable load which includes it's self weight. The design feature will have an impact with quality of reinforcement
The minimum covering of reinforcement for roof slab is 30mm
A one way slab reinforcement supports 2 walls while a two way slab reinforcement supports 4 walls. The one way slab reinforcement only supports walls in one direction.
1. one way slab 2. two way slab 3. flat slab 4. roof slab
Ok to create a slab with no reinforcement, you have to remove tensile forces from the slab, this is only possible by manipulating its shape for only compressive forces, like make it a bit pyramidal or with a vault etc.
In order to estimate rcc roof slab you must measure the roof and calculate its area. Then you must contact a professional to see how much slab will be needed.
The reinforcement resisting flexure (bending) in the direction of the span.
what must the thickness of steel be for a 200 mm. dubble story floor with a size of 4440 x 8220
no, welded wires are not powerful, it can be used only where the area of slab is small.
if length/breadth equal or greater than 2 then its oneway slab and reinforcement is on the short span because moments are great near the supports
Drill out the edge of the slab and add some dowels....or cut the slab back.
Torsion reinforcement provided at the corner of two way slab to control cracking at corners.
