As per IS 800:2007, Clause No. 5.6.1:
The maximum vertical deflection for cantilever beam:- Supported by elastic cladding, deflection is limited to Span/120.
- Supported by brittle cladding, deflection is limited to Span/150.
The maximum vertical deflection for simply supported beam:
- Supported by elastic cladding, deflection is limited to Span/240.
- Supported by brittle cladding, deflection is limited to Span/300.
- Max deflection < L/325 of the span in general
As per IS 456:2000, Clause 23.2:
The deflection shall generally be limited to the following:
- The final deflection due to all loads including the effects of temperature, creep, and shrinkage and measured from the as-cast level of the supports of floors, roofs, and all other horizontal members, should not normally exceed span/250.
- The deflection including the effects of temperature, creep and shrinkage occurring after the erection of partitions and the application of finishes should not normally exceed span/350 or 20 mm whichever is less.
