Figure 4
The one way slab shown in the Figure 4 has reinforcement at the top at the
ends with a moment capacity m
x1
per unit width and reinforcement at the
bottom of the mid-span with capacity m
x2
per unit width. It is loaded with a
uniform load of w per unit area. Compute the moment capacity required to
support w.
Step 1- select axes and yield lines.
Axes and negative moment yield lines will form along the faces of the
supports and a positive moment yield line will form at a mid-span.
Step 2 Give a slab a virtual displacement
Some point in the slab is displaced downward by an amount . Line C-D had
been displaced .
Step 3 Compute the external work
The total load on plate segment A-B-C-D is W = w(bL/2). The displacement
of the resultant load W :
c
= /2. Therefore the external work done on plate
A-B-C-D is

Square slab
The simply supported square slab has a positive moment capacity, mx = my.
Compute the value of m required to support a uniform load w.
Steps 1 select the axes and yield lines
Yield lines will form along the diagonal which as shown in Figure 5 are
lines of the maximum moment. The segments will rotate about axes along
the four supports.

Total internal work = 2 x 36.678 + 2 x 51.678 = 176.78 kNm
Step 5 equate the external and internal work
5.25 w = 176.78 so w = 33.6 kN/m
