σst = 190 N/mm2 σst = 150 N/mm2
σcbc = 8.5 N/mm2 σcbc = 8.5 N/mm2
m = 10.98 m = 10.98
k = 0.33 k = 0.38
J = 0.89 J = 0.87
R = 1.25 R = 1.42

Design of Vertical Walls

B.M = w*H3/6 9800x1.1^3/6= 2174 N-m

Since tension occurs at water side hence,

σst = 150 N/mm2 R= 1.42
Effective depth required= 40 mm (from BM consideration)
Assume breadth of compression face= 400 mm
Assume thickness of horizontal slab= 250 mm

Effective depth of beam= 1790.00 mm

Slenderness limits for beams to ensure lateral stability :
To ensure lateral stability, The clear distance between the lateral supports
according to para 23.3 of IS:456-2000 should not exceed.
i) 60b (or) whichever is less
ii) 250 b /d 2

Where
'd' is the effective depth of the beam and
'b' the breadth of the compression face
clear span= 1200.0 cm

i) 60b = 2400 cm
ii) 250 b2 / d = 2234.64 cm
Mininum of above i and ii = 2234.64 cm > 1200 cm
HENCE SAFE

Check for vertical deflection:

As per para 23.2.1 of IS 456 : 2000 the vertical deflection limits may
generally be assumed to be satisfied provided that
the span to depth ratio is less than 20 for Simply supported spans up to 10 m
20x 10/span for Simply supported spans greater than 10 m

Span = 1200.00 = 6.704 < 20

Eff. depth 179.00
HENCE SAFE

Main Reinforcement
Ast = 47.4793019 mm2

Using # 10 bars spacing= 1654.19 mm

Provide # 10 bars @ 120 mm C/C OK

Distribution Reinforcement
Minimum reinforcement as per IS:3370 is 0.35 %
Area of distribution reinforcement = 1400.0 mm2
Area on each face = 700.0 mm2
Using # 10 bars spacing= 112.1997 mm
Provide # 10 bars @ 110 mm C/C OK
Design of horizontal slab
Assume thickness of horizontal slab= 250 mm
