Practical No. 03: Design of Restreined Slab Aim

The document provides procedures for designing a two-way torsionally restrained concrete slab using Master Series application software. The procedures include opening the software, selecting a two-way torsionally restrained slab template, inputting design parameters such as member dimensions, loads, material properties, and reinforcement sizes and spacing, and using the software to automatically design the slab based on the input information.

PRACTICAL NO.

03: DESIGN OF RESTREINED SLAB

AIM: To design one way/two way torsionally restrained slab

APPARATUS
Computer system ( hardware)
Master series application 2010 version (software)

PROCEDURES
i. Open master series application using desktop shortcut
ii. using the pointer to navigate element design, then right click to open
iii. select master key: concrete slab
iv. create new folder so as to open the working space
v. by using a cursor, select two way torsionally restrained slab which will be
found in the brief icon
vi. Two way torsionally restrained slab will be displayed on the monitor ready for
starting design.
vii. Feed the pleriminary informations needed for design by clicking basic data
icon
viii. In the basic data fill all the necessary data for designing R.C.C two way
torsionally restrained slab such as
Depth=180mm
Lx = 3500mm
Ly = 4000mm
Live load = 2.6KN/m2 (depending on the function of the building, refer to the
design code)
Dead load = 1.6KN/m2 (feed dead load only for finishes and omit the self-
weight of the member)
Top I & II/bottom I & II steel = 10mm/12mm depending on the span and
loadings
Pitch (space between reinforcements) = (100-250)mm depending on size of
reinforcement and aggregate used)
ix. Therefore select covers grades default icon to set
Top and bottom covers = 25mm
Aggregate size = 20mm
Fcu = 30
Fy = 250
Density of concrete = 24
x. Add the additional reinforcements if it is necessary to do so as we provided in
the previous procedures.
xi. Fill the minimum diameter of reinforcement and minimum and maximum
pitch to control the software to design basing on the available resources.
xii. Provide the percentage of reinforcement at support
xiii. After providing all the informations, select the design code then click auto
design icon to finalize the design
