Slab Flexural Design

P ROBLEM D ESCRIPTION

The purpose of this example is to verify slab flexural design in SAFE

A one-way, simple-span slab supported by walls on two opposite edges is modeled using SAFE The slab is 150 mm thick and spans 4 meters between walls To ensure one-way action, Poisson’s ratio is taken to be zero The slab is modeled using thin plate elements The walls are modeled as line supports without rotational stiffnesses and with very large vertical stiffness (1 × 1015 kN/m) The computational model uses a finite element mesh, automatically generated by SAFE The maximum element size is specified as 1.0 meter To obtain factored moments and flexural reinforcement in a design strip, one one-meter wide strip is defined in the X-direction on the slab, as shown in Figure 1

One dead load case (DL4KPa) and one live load case (LL5KPa) with uniformly distributed surface loads of magnitudes 4 and 5 kN/m2, respectively, are defined

in the model A load combination (COMB5kPa) is defined using the Hong Kong CP-04 load combination factors, 1.4 for dead loads and 1.6 for live loads The model is analyzed for both load cases and the load combination

The slab moment on a strip of unit width is computed analytically The total factored strip moments are compared with the SAFE results After completing analysis, design is performed using the Hong Kong CP-04 code by SAFE and also by hand computation Table 1 shows the comparison of the design reinforcements computed using the two methods

γm, concrete = 1.50

b = 1000 mm
