    engineer is Terminator

    BS8110 design specifications say that it can withstand load upto 25KN/m^3
    If you are concerned about the safety side,Id say the slab is safe enough to withstand the load as given by you.If you have a different question,kindly revert back.
    Though,I'm not a Civil engineer,I'm son of a Civil engineer and he has made me do my homework really well.
