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

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.
7.3.2 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.
