b(eff) = (eff span/6) + bw + 6Df.

23.1.2 Effective Width of Flange.

In the absence of more accurate determination. The effective width of the flange may be taken as the following but in no case greater than the breadth of the web plus half the sum of the clear distances to the adjacent beams on either side.
a) For T-beams, B(eff) = (Lo/6)+bw+6Df.
Lo = Effective span length.
Bw = Width of rib.
Df = Depth of flange.

Least of above means? Explain, please.

1 Bf=Lo/6+bw+6df.

2 Centre to centre distance between adjacent slab,
Minimum of both of them.
So correct answer is B.

EDDY said:   8 years ago
B is correct.

Ganesh said:   8 years ago
It should be l/12+bw+3Df.
