Reynold's Method

This document outlines Reynolds' method for calculating equivalent uniform loads from line loads on slabs. It provides an example calculation for a simply supported slab with dimensions Lx=3.5m and Ly=4.3m that is subjected to non-uniform partition wall loads. The loads are converted to modified line loads and then equivalent uniform loads are calculated based on the slab dimensions and support condition coefficients. The maximum equivalent uniform load is determined to be 2.47 kN/m^2.

LOAD CALCULATION
Actual loads from partion loads

HCB wall thickness used in the x-direction= 15 cm


HCB wall thickness used in the y-direction= 15 cm
Room height= 2.88 m
partition wall length in the x-direction= 0.3 m
partition wall length in the y-direction= 3.30 m
wp1= loads parallel to Lx/Lx 0.75 KN/m
wp2= loads parallel to Ly/Ly 6.67 KN/m

Modified line loads


wpx1= wp2*wx= 4.6724 wpy1= wp1*wy= 0.223653
wpx2= wp1*wx= 0.5219 wpy2= wp2*wy= 2.002471

Equivalent width(ex) & equivalent length(ey) of slab

slab thickness(g)= 15 cm
e x= g+0.6*Lx= 2.55 m g=t+2*D= 0.45
e y= g+0.6*Ly= 3.03 m g=t+2*D= 0.45

SUPPORT CONDITION COEFFICIENTS NOTE:


Cx= 1.7 C= 2 for simply supprted slab
Cy= 1.7 = 1.7 for simply supprted slab at one end & cont. at the other end
= 1.5 for continuous over both supports

Equivalent loads
Equivalent loads on Lx wex1= =Cx*wpx1/Lx= 2.27 KN/m^2
wex2= =wpx2/ex= 0.20 KN/m^2
wex= wex1+wex2= 2.47 KN/m^2
Equivalent loads on Ly = wey1= =Cy*wpy1/Ly= 0.09 KN/m^2
wey2= =wpy2/ey= 0.66 KN/m^2
wey= wey1+wey2= 0.75 KN/m^2
