Slab Design Flow

The document provides a flowchart for the design of a slab. It outlines the steps as: 1) Calculate the weight, factored moment and effective depth of the slab given parameters like height, loads. 2) Solve for reinforcement ratio ρ and check if it meets limits. 3) Adjust depth if ρ is outside limits. Otherwise use minimum ρ. 4) Compute main bar spacing and select smallest of options. 5) Similarly compute and select spacing for temperature/shrinkage bars.
