If P kg/m² is the upward pressure on the slab of a plain concrete footing whose projection on either side of the wall is a cm, the depth of foundation D is given by D = 0.775 Pa D = 0.0775 aP D = 0.00775 aP D = 0.07775 aP TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
If K is a constant depending upon the ratio of the width of the slab to its effective span l, x is the distance of the concentrated load from the nearer support, bw is the width of the area of contact of the concentrated load measured parallel to the supported edge, the effective width of the slab be is Kx (1 + x/l) + bw All listed here Kx (1 - x/l) + bw K/x (1 + x/d) + bw TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
If W is total load per unit area on a panel, D is the diameter of the column head, L is the span in two directions, then the sum of the maximum positive bending moment and average of the negative bending moment for the design of the span of a square flat slab, should not be less than WL/12 (L - D/3)² WL/10 (L + 2D/3)² WL/10 (L - 2D/3)² WL/12 (L - 2D/3)² TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
