Maximum Steel Quantity Estimation for RCC Slab Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Quantity of Steel = 0.015*Area of Slab*Thickness of Slab*Density of Steel
Q_steel = 0.015*A_slab*t_slab*ρ_steel
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Quantity of Steel - (Measured in Kilogram) - Maximum Quantity of Steel is the maximum mass of steel in kg that we will be requiring in the construction of a particular RCC component.
Area of Slab - (Measured in Square Meter) - The area of slab is the amount of two-dimensional space taken up by slab.
Thickness of Slab - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Slab is the depth of the slab.
Density of Steel - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of steel is usually taken as 7860kg/m3 in civil domain. Though there exists steel of different densities Carbon steel's density is about 7.84 g/cm3,stainless steel's is about 8.03 g/cm3.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of Slab: 50 Square Meter --> 50 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Thickness of Slab: 300 Millimeter --> 0.3 Meter (Check conversion here)
Density of Steel: 7860 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 7860 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_steel = 0.015*A_slab*t_slab*ρ_steel --> 0.015*50*0.3*7860

Evaluating ... ...

Q_steel = 1768.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1768.5 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1768.5 Kilogram <-- Maximum Quantity of Steel

What is the Maximum & Minimum Quantity of Steel required for RCC Slab?

-Thumb rule for steel in slab = 1% to 1.5%

-Minimum quantity of steel required for 1m3 concrete slab is 1%, now 1% of 1m3 = 0.01 m3, and we know that 1m3 steel weight is 7850 Kg, so weight of 0.01m3 steel = 0.01 × 7850 = 78.50 kg, so minimum quantity of steel required for 1m3 concrete slab is 78.50 Kg.

-Maximum quantity of steel required for 1m3 concrete slab is 1.5%, now 1.5% of 1m3 = 0.015m3, and we know that 1m3 steel weight is 7850 Kg, so weight of 0.015m3 steel = 0.015 × 7850 = 118 kg, so maximum quantity of steel required for 1m3 concrete slab is 118 Kg.
