84 BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS FOR STRUCTURAL CONCRETE (ACI 318-14) AND COMMENTARY (ACI 318R-14)

CODE COMMENTARY
Table 7.3.1.1—Minimum thickness of solid nonpre-
stressed one-way slabs
Support condition Minimum h[1]
Simply supported ℓ/20
One end continuous ℓ/24
Both ends continuous ℓ/28
Cantilever ℓ/10
[1]
Expression applicable for normalweight concrete and fy = 60,000 psi. For other
cases, minimum h shall be modified in accordance with 7.3.1.1.1 through 7.3.1.1.3,
as appropriate.

7.3.1.1.1 For fy other than 60,000 psi, the expressions in


Table 7.3.1.1 shall be multiplied by (0.4 + fy/100,000).

7.3.1.1.2 For nonprestressed slabs made of lightweight


concrete having wc in the range of 90 to 115 lb/ft3, the expres-
sions in Table 7.3.1.1 shall be multiplied by the greater of (a)
and (b):

(a) 1.65 – 0.005wc


(b) 1.09

7.3.1.1.3 For nonprestressed composite slabs made of a


combination of lightweight and normalweight concrete,
shored during construction, and where the lightweight
concrete is in compression, the modifier of 7.3.1.1.2 shall
apply.

7.3.1.2 The thickness of a concrete floor finish shall be


permitted to be included in h if it is placed monolithically
with the floor slab or if the floor finish is designed to be
composite with the floor slab in accordance with 16.4.

7.3.2 Calculated deflection limits R7.3.2 Calculated deflection limits—The basis for calcu-
lated deflections for one-way slabs is the same as that for
7.3.2.1 For nonprestressed slabs not satisfying 7.3.1 and beams. Refer to R9.3.2 for additional information.
for prestressed slabs, immediate and time-dependent deflec-
tions shall be calculated in accordance with 24.2 and shall
not exceed the limits in 24.2.2.

7.3.2.2 For nonprestressed composite concrete slabs satis-


--`,`,,`,,```,`,,``,`,`,,``,`,``-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---

fying 7.3.1, deflections occurring after the member becomes


composite need not be calculated. Deflections occurring
before the member becomes composite shall be investigated,
unless the precomposite thickness also satisfies 7.3.1.

7.3.3 Reinforcement strain limit in nonprestressed slabs

7.3.3.1 For nonprestressed slabs, εt shall be at least 0.004.

7.3.4 Stress limits in prestressed slabs

7.3.4.1 Prestressed slabs shall be classified as Class U, T,


or C in accordance with 24.5.2.
