    The document provides a design summary and calculations for a 300mm thick unreinforced concrete slab on ground according to ACI 360R standards. It evaluates the slab thickness and joint spacing to ensure they are adequate to avoid live load-induced cracks based on a single-axle wheel load of 133.4 kN on an interior location.

    SLAB ON GROUND (ACI 360R)


    In accordance with Guide to Design of Slab-on-Ground per ACI 360R-10
    Tedds calculation version 1.0.03

    Design summary
    Description Unit Provided Required Utilization Result
    Slab thickness mm 300 243 0.810 PASS
    Joint spacing mm 4500 6739 0.668 PASS
    300 mm

    Slab foundation-refer to Section 4.1 of ACI 360R

    Design method
    Design method publisher; Portland Cement Association
    Materials and site properties
    Slab thickness; h = 300 mm
    Specified compressive strength of concrete; f'c = 36 MPa
    Subgrade modulus; k = 17145 kN/m3
    Wheel specifications
    Axle type; Single-axle
    Number of wheels at end of each axle; Single wheel
    Wheel center to center spacing; S = 1016 mm
    Loading details
    Load location; Interior
    Axle load; Pa = 133.4 kN
    Safety facor; FS = 2
    Load contact area per wheel; Ac = 32258 mm2
    By iteration assumend trial thickness; htrial = 254 mm
    The following output is based on the use of this trial thickness in the design charts in Appendix A of ACI 360R
    Effective contact area per wheel (Fig. A1.2); Ac_eff = 39677 mm2
    Slab thickness design
    Modulus of rupture of concrete; fr = 0.749  (f'c  1 MPa) = 4.494 MPa
    Concrete working stress; ft_allow = fr / FS = 2.247 MPa
    Slab stress / 4.45 kN (1000 lb) axle load; ft = ft_allow / (Pa /1 kN / 4.448) = 0.075 MPa
    Required slab thickness (Fig. A1.1); hmin = 243 mm
    hmin / h = 0.81
    PASS - Slab thickness is adequate to avoid live load-induced cracks
    Crack control options
    Reinforcement type Unreinforced
