DEFLECTION LIMITS FOR AESTHETICS AND SENSE OF COMFORT
The out-of-level condition of a floor system can be controlled through camber at time of construction, once the long-term deflection of a floor is estimated.
Reduced thickness

Excessive camber can result in unacceptable reduction in thickness, since the top surface of most slabs are made level at construction time.

DEFLECTION CALCULATION OF CONCRETE FLOORS
ESTIMATE OF PROBABLE DEFLECTIONS
Concrete slabs deflect instantaneously due to applicationConcrete slabs deflect instantaneously, due to application of loads, and continue to deflect under sustained load. Hence, estimate of the probable deflection of slabs consists of computation of (i) instantaneous, and (ii) long-term deflectionsterm deflections.
The following presentation is broken down into:
Methods of estimating instantaneous deflections andMethods of estimating instantaneous deflections andexamples: Estimate of long-term deflections and examples
ESTIMATE OF INSTANTANEOUS DEFLECTION
Instantaneous deflection of a concrete slab depends on:The dimensional geometry and support conditions of the slab; Age of the concrete at loading. With time, concretebecomes stifferCracking at higher values of load
DEFLECTION CALCULATION OF CONCRETE FLOORS
Instantaneous DeflectionsThere are several methods commonly used to calculate the instantaneous deflection of a concrete slab Thethe instantaneous deflection of a concrete slab. The most common methods are:

The shrinkage deflection depends primarily on the amount and position of reinforcement in slab.
A corollary impact of shrinkage is crack formation due to restraint of the supports. It is the crack formation due to shrinkage that increases deflection under

Shrinkage values can vary from zero, when concrete is fully immersed in water to 800 micro strain. Typical ultimate shrinkage values are between 400 to 500 micro strain.

LIVE LOAD DEFLECTION
Even when linear elastic theory is used for the calculation of a floor system’s deflection, cracking will result in a non-linear response. For the same load, the deflection of a slab depends on the extent of cracking prior to the application of the load. For this reason, when calculating the deflection due to the , ginstantaneous application of live load, the following procedure has to be used:
Deflection due to LL =
(deflection due to DL+LL) – (deflection due to DL)
The above accounts for loss of stiffness due to dead load prior to the application of live load.

LONG-TERM DEFLECTIONnumerical example
Delayed application of load with allowance for cracking
More than two years, the structure is checked for (0.7 LL), hen it deflects to point D The total deflection e periencedwhen it deflects to point D. The total deflection experienced
by the members likely to be damaged is deflection due:
Entire live load; long term effects of the selfweight after day 45; andlong-term effects of the selfweight after day 45; and long-term effects of the sustained portion of live.
Dsw,LT = 0.40 in.
D0.3LL,LT = 0.15 in.
The instantaneous deflection of live load DLL is given by the difference between two solutions, namely Dsw SDL LL which y sw,SDL.LL includes the entire loads and Dsw,SDL that includes the selfweight and superimposed dead loads. The load combinations for the two solutions are:
For Dsw,SDL.LL (1.0 * SW + 1.0 * SDL + 1.0 * LL) = 0.70 in.
For Dsw,SDL ( * S * S )(1.0 * SW + 1.0 * SDL) = 0.48 in.
DLL = 0.70 – 0.48 = 0.22 in.
LONG-TERM DEFLECTIONnumerical example
Delayed application of load with allowance for cracking
Total deflection is the sum of the following:DLong-term effects of selfweight Dsw,LT = 0.40 in.
Long-term effect of SDL DSDL,LT = 0.22 in.Long-term of sustained live load D0.3LL,LT = 0.15 in.Instantaneo s deflection d e to LL D 0 22 inInstantaneous deflection due to LL DLL = 0.22 in.
