FOREWORD This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of lndian Standards, after the draft finalized Housing Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council. by the

Considerable shortage of houses in the country, which is also increasing continuously, has led to increasing stress being laid in the development programmes of central and state governments, on facilitating Problem of housing being enormous amongst the lower speedy and economical construction of houses. both rural and urban, the greatest stress is being laid on housing for these target income groups, groups. This calls for development and standardization of new building which are simple and economical, commensurate with structural order to ensure speedy and economical construction. materials and construction techniques and hygienic safety and durability, in

This standard is one of the series of standards on new materials and techniques of roof/floor construction which when implemented is likely to result in substantial savings in materials and cost of construction, in addition to achieving speedy construction. The other standards in the series are: a) Precast reinforced concrete b) Precast reinforced concrete c) Design and construction of Code of Practice d) Prefabricated brick panel Specification e) Design and construction L-panels for roofing -- Specification planks and joists for roofing and flooring - Specification floor and roof with precast reinforced concrete planks and joist and partially precast concrete joist for flooring panel and Code roofing

of roofs and floors with prefabricated

brick

of Practice

f) Precast reinforced concrete channel units for construction of floors and roofs - Specification g) Design and construction of floor and roof with precast reinforced channel units - Code of Practice h) Construction of walls using precast concrete stone masonry blocks - Code of Practice Prefabricated reinforced concrete L-panel can be used for construction of sloping roofs in place of conventional roofings. It mainly consists of a full span reinforced concrete L-shaped component thereby combining sheeting, purlins and battens of a conventional sloping roof into a monolithically composed component fulfilling the functions of all these separate components. The panel acts as L-beam having wide flange for resisting flexural compressive stress and hence resulting in saving material and overall cost. Additional advantages of L-panels are its durability and its reusability to suit temporary constructions. Considerable assistance has been rendered in the preparation of Research Institute, Roorkee, who have developed this technique. The Committee responsible for the formulation of this standard this standard by the Central A. Building

is given at Annex

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : 1960 Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised ). The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

DESIGNANDCONSTRUCTIONOFROOFSUSING PRECASTvREINFORCEDCONCRETE L-PANEL-CODEOFPRACTICE

1 SCOPE 1.1 This stattdard lays down the criteria for design of precast reittforced concrete L-panel for roof constructiott attd the recotnntendatiotts for cottstructiott of roof with these L-yattel. 2 REFERENCES 2.1 The Indiatt Stattdrds listed in Annex B are ttecessary adjuttcts to this standard. 3 MATERIALS 3.1 Concrete Concrete used for tttakittg L-yattels, supyortittg beattts, if any, as well as the in-situ concrete shall conform to grade M-15, or for higher raittfall area or corrosive atmosphere, grade M-20 or M-25 of IS 456 : 1978. Raw materials used for makittg concrete shall cottfontt to the requirements of IS 456 : 1978. Itttyernteability of concrete shall be ettsured, in additiott to strettgth. While desigttittg the tuix or otherwise choosing the tuix proportions. Table 1 of IS 14241 : 1995 should be followed. 3.2 Steel Mild steel cottfortnittg to grade 1 of IS 432 (Part 1) : 1982, high strettgtlt deforttted bars cottfortuing to IS 1786 : 1985 or other steels as recottttuettded in IS 456 : 1978 shall be used. 4 ELEMENTS OF ROOF 4.1 L-panel L-yattel used for cottstructiott of roofs shall cottfortn to IS 14241 : 1995. 4.2 Supporting Rema Supportittg beattt, whett used, shall be desigttrd as simply suyporfed rectattgular beam as per IS 456 : 1978. However, combination of a partially prrcast reittforced cottcrete joist attd in-situ concrete with suitable reittforcetttrnt tuay provide. more economic desigtt of the supportittg beam, in such case a Tee-beam shall be cottsidered for the desigtt as showtt in Fig. I.

Thus if vertical sitttply supported Bettdittg Motttettt is M, thett Bettdittg Motttettt perpettdicular to the tlattge Ml = M cost attd parallel to the flattge Mz = M sin& where augle Clis the attgle tttade by flattge of L-pattels to the horizontal, which will be givett by the followittg equatiott: tatt 8 = i - (B _ b) where 1 -_= M iv) Hattdlittg stresses while liftittg the uttit sitttply supported and upside down.

For basic wittd pressure higher than 1.50 kg/m, anchorage shall be designed. However, for ditttettsiotts other that1 those ittdicated above, anchorage requirement shall always be checked. 5.6 For the prevailittg wind pressures itt Lttdia, uo extra reittforcetttettt in L-panels shall be tteeded to resistwittd force. 6 SCJPPORTING BREAM OR TRUSS
