Using BS8110 part 3 tables I now know that i need some substantial mesh/reinforcement...

In slab I need B1131 (100mm/12mm dia x 200mm/8mm dia)
In beams I need 10 x T12mm bars, 5 top and 5 bottom on the long side and 8 x T8 (4 top, 4 bottom) on the short sides.

Its cheaper to use the more expensive mesh than to make the concrete thicker...
