Design of punching shear for prestressed slabs with unbonded tendons on internal columns

Numerical Analysis of Punching Shear Failure of Reinforced Concrete Slabs

Nearly no load bearing behaviour of reinforced concrete members allows such varied interpretations and complex discussions as the shear behaviour. Especially the three-dimensional problem of the punching shear failure of reinforced concrete members is internationally discussed. Nevertheless up to now, there is no unified design approach or even an overall accepted design model. Especially for l...

Punching shear strength of steel fibre reinforced concrete slabs

The ultimate strength of reinforced concrete slabs is frequently governed by the punching shear capacity, which may be increased with addition of traditional fitments such as reinforcing steel, headed studs or shear heads. In addition to these traditional methods of strengthening against punching, steel fibre reinforcement has proved to be an effective and viable alternative. The addition of fi...

Punching shear capacity of reinforced concrete slabs with headed shear studs

Estimation of Punching Shear Capacity of Concrete Slabs Using Data Mining Techniques

Punching shear capacity is a key factor for governing the collapsed form of slabs. This fragile failure that occurs at the slab-column connection is called punching shear failure and has been of concern for the engineers. The most common practice in evaluating the punching strength of the concrete slabs is to use the empirical expressions available in different building design codes. The estima...

effect of cyclic loading on punching shear strength of slabs strengthened with carbon fiber polymer sheets

in this paper, the effect of cyclic loading on punching strength of flat slabs strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (cfrp) sheets is studied. experimental results of ten slab specimens under monotonic and cyclic loading are analyzed. eight specimens were strengthened with cfrp sheets on the tensile face of the slabs and the two other specimens were kept un-strengthened as control s...
