Notes
l This calculation is based on slab poured to the constant thickness specified. No account is taken for any additional
concrete weight as a result of deflection of the supporting structure.
l Where "calculated minimum" is chosen for reinforcement, values represent minimum design code requirements. These may
need to be increased for other purposes (e.g. crack control, transverse reinforcement for composite beams etc.)
l This calculation does not consider any reinforcement requirements not associated with composite action between deck
and concrete (e.g. cantilever, void trimming etc.). These should be specified separately.
[1] This figure represents the dynamic deflection of the slab only. This should be added to the dynamic deflection of supporting
beams when considering natural frequency of floor plate (Refer SCI P-354)
[4] The figures calculated are based on the values for steel deck and typical RC30 concrete with 2% reinforcement as published by
BCSA, for the relevant references refer steelconstruction.info/Life_cycle_assessment_and_embodied_carbon.
