140 SL72
Bottom reinforcement required for fire resistance of 60 minutes (mm2/m) 160 SL82
180 SL82
KEY - Continuous Spans
Top tensile (negative) reinforcements over supports (mm2/m)

Fire reinforcement required for fire

resistance of 120 minutes (mm2/m)
1440
50 570

Fire reinforcement required for fire resistance of 90 minutes (mm2/m)

Notes:

1. Areas without cells mean that a design solution is not possible based on input
parameters and design options presented in this manual. Contact LYSAGHT® Research &
Technology for further options.

2. Single spans do not require top tensile reinforcement, relevant cells are not shown.

3. All spans are centre-to-centre.

4. A dash (-) means no fire reinforcement is necessary.

5. N/A means a design solution with this particular fire rating is not possible.

6. Top tensile/negative reinforcement is additional to shrinkage mesh area.
