Reinforced Concrete Design | Topic 9 Part 1: Design of RC Slabs | Eurocode 2

Welcome to our Reinforced Concrete Design series to Eurocode 2. In this lecture, Topic 9 Part 1: Design of Reinforced Concrete Slabs, we introduce the analysis and design of one-way spanning RC slabs, including load arrangements, design coefficients, reinforcement detailing, and serviceability checks according to Eurocode 2. 📌 In this lecture, we: ✅ Outline the role and behaviour of reinforced concrete slabs ✅ Use the 1 m design strip approach for one-way slabs ✅ Review loading arrangements and design coefficients for continuous slabs ✅ Calculate design moments and shear forces using EC2 factors ✅ Step through the full slab design process ✅ Select bar diameters and spacing using reinforcement tables ✅ Check shear capacity (noting slabs rarely need shear links) ✅ Apply minimum/maximum reinforcement limits ✅ Cover anchorage, U-bar detailing and curtailment rules for one-way slabs 🏢 This series has been developed by Dr Leon Chernin and Dr Margi Vilnay. 👷‍♀️ Delivered by Dr Margi Vilnay – Senior Lecturer in Structural Engineering, Chartered Engineer, and Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. 🔎 Follow the full Reinforced Concrete Design series 📚 Watch the complete playlist for all lectures: https://bit.ly/3JWCPGy 👉 Subscribe for more lectures like this! #ReinforcedConcrete #RCSlabDesign #OneWaySlab #Eurocode2 #ConcreteDesign #StructuralEngineering #CivilEngineering #RCDesign #ContinuousSlabs #SlabReinforcement #Anchorage #Curtailment #EngineeringLectures #EngineeringEducation
