likely to be damaged by large deflections
Table 1. Maximum permissible computed deflections (Table 9.5b, ACI 318-11)
Notes: *Limit not intended to safeguard against ponding. Ponding should be checked by suitable calculations of
deflection due to ponded water, and considering long-term effects of all sustained loads, camber, construction
tolerances, and reliability of provisions for drainage.
**Long-term deflection shall be determined in accordance with 9.5.2.5 or 9.5.4.3 (ACI 318-11), but may be reduced
by amount of deflection calculated to occur before attachment of nonstructural elements. This amount shall be
determined on basis of accepted engineering data relating to time-deflection characteristics of members similar to
those being considered.
^Limit may be exceeded if adequate measures are taken to prevent damage to supported or attached elements.
^^Limit shall not be greater than tolerance provided for nonstructural elements. Limit may be exceeded if camber
is provided so that total deflection minus camber does not exceed limit.
