Want this question answered?
ly is the longest span of slab while lx is shortest span of slab
Ans: One way slab is the slab having ratio of longer span to shorter span equal to or more than 1.5 . If the ratio of longer span to shorter span is equal to or less than 1.5, then such slabs are called as two way slab. In one way slab main tensile reinforcement is placed parellel to shorter side which will be the main steel, where as in two way slab both direction required main steel.
construction joints are leave in RCC Slab one third of span.
The reinforcement resisting flexure (bending) in the direction of the span.
you didn't say how large the floor was but you should be able to install new 2x6 joist supporting mid ro third span as required bobp
Yes waffle can be provided for 20m x 20m span but it becomes uneconomical
ly is the longest span of slab while lx is shortest span of slab
the ratio of Length of span / width of span = >2 or <2 Or where span of Slab is with in 3.6 m it is one way slab, and where span is more than 3.6 m it is two way slan.

in way one span ly/lx>2. maximum spam moment M =nl2x2/8 per meter width,where n= ultimate super inposed load[kN/m2 why 2 way spam ly/lx< s
About 5metres(16') but would have to be stress graded timber.
One-way-solid slab flexible but limited in span. one way concrete joist system allows longer spans. Wide module or skip system allows longer span and uses less concrete than the one-way joist system. Slab bands or joist bands may be used with these systems, They serve to reduce the spans of the slabs to conserve headroom in the building.
 Two- way-2 way solid slab rarely used but useful where loads are heavy. Two-way flat slab good for heavy loading, two-way flat plate good for lighter floor loading. Very flexible in column locations. Conserves headroom in buildings. Two-way concrete joists or waffle systems good for long spans.
To calculate floor support requirements you need to calculate the maximum load. Determine the breadth of the joist, span and fiber stress for each floor system. In addition, you will need to determine the total area supported and divide it by one joist.

Not sure what you mean? floor joist span table???
