The Effective span of the simply supported beam or slab is Min (clear span + eff depth, clear span + width of support).

Clear span plus the effective depth of slab OR Center to Center of supports.

Please describe.

B is the correct answer because as per clause 22.2 (a) is valid only for that S/S slab that is not built integrally with its supports.

Generally, S/S slabs are those slabs in which the beam is not cast monolithically with the slab. Hence B is the correct answer.

Effective span = clear span plus half-thickness of support on one side half another side.

Answer should be C, according to IS 456:2000, page 34, clause 22.2 (a).

Clear span + effective depth of the slab.

Clear Span + Width of the support (wall or column)
whichever is less.
Or
Clear Span + 2 * Half Width of the support (wall or column).

A as per IRC-5 for Bridges.

1) Clear distance+ effective depth.

2) Centre to centre distance.

I think it is Clear span + effective depth of the slab.

It's clear span+depth of slab or Clear span+wall thickness. Least of two will be adopted for design consideration.
