The slab requires additional shear reinforcement.

A rectangular slab with a span of 4 meters and a thickness of 0.2 meters is subjected to a permanent load of 2 kN/m^2 and a variable load of 1.5 kN/m^2. The slab is reinforced with a mesh of 10 mm diameter bars at 200 mm spacing. worked examples to eurocode 2 volume 2

The required reinforcement area is calculated as: The slab requires additional shear reinforcement

NEd = 1.35 x 500 + 1.5 x 200 = 847.5 kN

VRd,c = 0.12 x (1 + (0.6/0.2)) x 0.2 x 1 x 25 = 12.5 kN worked examples to eurocode 2 volume 2
