Ramp Structural Design and Calculations

The document outlines the design of a ramp with specific parameters including a length of 6m and a rise of 0.5m. It provides calculations for effective depth, shear, and bond, concluding that a 300 mm thick slab with 16 mm bars spaced at 125 mm and temperature bars of 10 mm spaced at 150 mm is appropriate. The design meets all required structural safety criteria.

DESIGN OF RAMP

DATA:

L = 6m

Rise = 0.5m

fc’ = 27.6 Mpa

n = 9

fy = 415 Mpa

fs = 248 Mpa

Dead load = 23.54 KN/m3

Live load = 7.22 KN/m3

Assume as simply supported

L 6000
Minimum t = = = 300 mm

Considering one meter strip of slab:

Dead load = (0.300)(1)(23.54)= 7.06 kN/m

Live load = 7.2 KN/m

W = (1.2)7.06 + (1.6)7.22 = 19.99 Kn/m
