Slenderness limits for deflection control: A new formulation for flexural reinforced concrete elements
The first step in the design of a structure is the definition of the geometry. This process includes the definition of the depth of slabs and beams. The depth of a flexural member is often determined by control of deflections, which can only be checked in detail at an advanced stage of the project. In order to optimize the design process, it is therefore very important to choose well the span‐to‐depth ratio at the beginning. In order to achieve this task in an easy manner, a lower limit to the slenderness of the beams in terms of span divided by the effective depth is proposed in most major codes. However, current proposals are rather coarse and are not necessarily on the safe side. In this paper, a new formulation for the slenderness limits, based on the physics of the problem, is presented. This formulation includes the effect of the composition of the load (live load to total load ratio) as well as the possibility of using different limits to maximum deflection and considering different, more general, support conditions. It is therefore more complete and has a larger application field than current proposals.
