RC SLAB DESIGN TO BS8110

In this comprehensive video, we deal with the intricate process of manually designing a two-way spanning reinforced concrete slab. Whether you’re a student, a practicing engineer, or simply passionate about structural engineering, this detailed guide will provide you with the expertise needed to design reinforced concrete slabs to British Standards with confidence.
We begin by classifying the slab, explaining the essential criteria that differentiate a two-way spanning slab from a one way spanning. To differentiate the two slabs check this link
• DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONE...
Moving forward, we meticulously determine the moment coefficients, a critical step in ensuring the slab’s stability and performance. Our journey continues with the design of steel reinforcement, both at midspan and edges, ensuring optimal structural integrity.
In the video, we perform thorough checks for shear, deflection, and cracking, meeting the highest safety and durability standards. To bring the design to life, we conclude with a detailed sketch of the slab, showcasing precise reinforcement detailing.
By the end of this video, you’ll have a solid grasp of the manual design calculations involved in creating a robust and reliable two-way spanning reinforced concrete slab. This is an invaluable opportunity to enhance your engineering skills and knowledge.

Thanks for the insights. Kindly have a class on same slab design with Prokon software

Thank you a lots for your video. Great explanation. I will have to watch again to fully understand the different concept. I note that you are using a Grade 25 concrete with 20 mm. cover while as far as I know BS8110 in one table consider only Grade 30 as minimum with a cover of 25 mm. for mild weather type. I compared this with IS standard 456-2000 where they have Grade 20 as minimum for reinforced concrete. There is an author A. Allen who inferred that Grade 25 is permitted in BS8110 through it is ambiguous and not that clear. Another issue I found while am studying all this is the formula for steel required where in some books they have 0.87 (Chanaka Arya, IStructE) and 0.95 (BS8110, McKenzie, Higgins & Rogers). This is based on different values for partial safety factors. It seemed that there is an update to BS8110 but still unsure about that. I have also been looking for the 1985 edition of BS8110 and CP110 without much success to check the value there. Many thanks for your video.

Hi Brian. Have you done any design for ribbed and waffled slabs? Please do one.

[@khaliilismail9304]

i like the way u are preparing sir
can i get this lesson as pdf pls

[@bervonmutunga2926]

How about the design for hollow blocks slab

[@bromtechengineering6705]

Hello. That is in plan. We will post that video once we are done with the design.

hi does this design can approved in load bearing slabs

[@bromtechengineering6705]

If you want your slab to bear load you can add the load to your additional dead load in load/sqm or use exact loading like line load or point load. The other process remains the same. If there is excessive concentrated load you might need to check for shear resistance at the load positions
