A reinforced concrete one-way slab is built integrally with its supporting beams which are all 12 inches thick. The slab consists of two equal spans, each with a clear span of 14 ft. The service live load is 100 psf, and 4000 psi concrete is specified for use with steel with a yield stress equal to 60,000 psi. a. Design the slab, following the provisions of the ACI Code. b. Make a dimensioned sketch showing the slab section of one span. Label the reinforcement shown in your sketch.
