Abstract:
This article, the fourth in a five-part series on calculating deflections using a new expression for the effective moment of inertia Ie introduced into ACI CODE-318-19, provides a deflection example. The example follows the procedure outlined in Part 1 to compute the deflection of reinforced concrete (nonprestressed) one-way slab with both ends continuous.

Various reinforcement types can be evaluated to determine their relative performance in controlling the restrained shrinkage cracking behavior of concrete. Two sets of published test data on restrained shrinkage cracking of slabs-on-ground are analyzed, and a parameter suitable for comparing the performance of various reinforcement types is identified.

NEx: An ACI Center of Excellence for Nonmetallic Building Materials held a full-day technical workshop on “Design of GFRP-Reinforced Slabs-on-Ground and Paving” at the ACI Concrete Convention in Toronto, ON, Canada, on March 31, 2025. In addition, NEx hosted an exclusive lunch for members, speakers, and industry leaders to connect.

This article introduces the latest fiber-reinforced polymer panel system developed by the author—SPiRe®+. These panels can serve as formwork, corrosion resistant reinforcement, and waterproofing. With their flat and smooth exterior face and protruding T-profiles on the interior face, the panels act as reinforcing elements for strengthening beams, slabs, and walls.

This is the third article in a five-part series. While Parts 1 and 2 review the procedure and basis for computing deflection of reinforced concrete with a new expression for the effective moment of inertia Ie first adopted in ACI CODE-318-19, this article examines the implications of this change for satisfying deflection limits of beams and one- and two-way slabs. A need is seen to revise current minimum thickness values for beams.
