ACI 318-19 Table 7.3.1.1 & §7.6

One-Way Slab Design Example

Step-by-step one-way reinforced concrete slab design example per ACI 318-19. Verifies minimum thickness to avoid deflection checks, calculates factored moment, required flexural steel, and temperature reinforcement.

Given Parameters

clear span (simply supported)
material strengths
factored surface load
clear concrete cover
unit design strip width

Calculation Steps

1. Minimum Slab Thickness (Table 7.3.1.1)

2. Factored Moment and Shear per Meter

3. Effective Depth d

4. Required Flexural Steel As,req

5. Check Minimum Reinforcement (ACI 318-19 §7.6.1.1)

6. Provided Reinforcement and Flexural Capacity
