This paper deals with behavior and capacity of punching shear force for flat slabs produced from steel fiber reinforced self compacting concrete (SFRSCC) by application nonlinear finite element method. Nonlinear finite element analysis on nine slab specimens was achieved by using ANSYS software. A general description of the finite element method, theoretical modeling of concrete and reinforceme...

Synopsis: The structural design for the East Addition to the St. Cloud Hospital facility in central Minnesota incorporated punching shear and cracked section design criteria that are not currently specified in ACI 318-05. The complexity of the column layout and shallow floor-to-floor spacing were the primary reasons for choosing a twoway 12 in. (300 mm) reinforced concrete flat slab for the 450...

Data collected from shake table tests of two, approximately one-third scale, two story flat plate frames utilizing shear reinforcement, as well as data from prior tests, were evaluated to assess the inter-story drift ratios when punching failures occur for reinforced concrete and post-tensioned slab-column connections with and without shear reinforcement. The drift ratios at punching for the sh...

PURPOSE Studies have both supported and refuted the concept that it is the intent to perform ballistic contractions that determines velocity-specific gains in resistance training. The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether ballistic intent is as effective as ballistic movement in improving muscle activation, force, movement time, and reaction time. METHODS Subjects completed 8...

Punching capacity is one of the main items in design both pre-stressed and non-pre-stressed flat slabs. All international codes include provisions to prevent this type failure. Unfortunately, there no code provision for UHPC yet, hence, aim research experimentally investigate impact column dimensions punching reinforcement on post-tensioned slabs compare results with codes’ evaluate its validit...

SYMPOSIUM PROCEEDINGS 1970 The aids to easy and accurate punching are twofold. For as many programmes as practicable, proformas are prepared whcre card columns arc idcntified and the entries to be made in each group of columns corresponding to the value of a variable are clearly defined. Fig. 3 gives a typical proforma used for the closed circuit respiration chamber programme, CCRC3. Note that ...

Programmable logic sequential pneumatic system is developed for mechanical applications, like sealing, name punching, plate designing, etc. punching machine considered as inevitable in almost all the industries mechanical, electronic, food and automobile, To print hallmarks, logos a brand. In respect to reducing processing time by upgrading conventional automation integrating with control (PLC)...
