Abstract:
1. What is the minimum permissible thickness for astructural concrete slab?
2. ACI 318-02 Section 10.11.1(b) gives alternative factors for computing the effective moment of inertia in the magnified moment design procedure. Would the effective moment of inertia of Class U prestressed beams (in accordance with 18.3.3) need to be reduced to 0.35Ig, despite the level of cracking?
3. Does ACI 318-02 give direction for dealing with concentrated loads on two-way slabs?
