In this study, the structural behavior of reinforced concrete flat plates shear reinforced with vertical grids made of a glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) was experimentally evaluated. To examine the shear strength, experiments were performed on nine concrete slabs with different amounts and spacings of shear reinforcement. The test results indicated that the shear strength increased as the amount of shear reinforcement increased and as the spacing of the shear reinforcement decreased. The GFRP shear reinforcement changed the cracks and failure mode of the specimens from a brittle punching to flexure one. In addition, the experimental results are compared with a shear strength equation provided by different concrete design codes. This comparison demonstrates that all of the equations underestimate the shear strength of reinforced concrete flat plates shear reinforced with GFRP vertical grids. The shear strength of the equation by BS 8110 is able to calculate the punching shear strength reasonably for a concrete flat plate shear reinforced with GFRP vertical grids.

Theoretical Results

Punching strength is a critical point in the design of flat slabs and due to the lack of a theoretical method capable of explaining this phenomenon, empirical formulations presented by codes of practice are still the most used method to check the bearing capacity of slab-column connections. This paper discusses relevant aspects of the development of flat slabs, the factors that influence the punching resistance of slabs without shear reinforcement and makes comparisons between the experimental results organized in a database with 74 slabs carefully selected with theoretical results using the recommendations of ACI 318, EUROCODE 2 and NBR 6118 and also through the Critical Shear Crack Theory, presented by Muttoni (2008) and incorporated the new fib Model Code (2010).

Old reinforced concrete buildings constructed around 1980’s in many developing countries have been designed against mainly gravity load. Beam-column joints in these buildings contain slightly or no shear reinforcement inside the panel zones due to the construction convenience, and are vulnerable to shear failure in beam-column joints under the action of earthquake loads, especially for the exterior beam-column joints. This experimental study aimed to investigate the seismic performance of five half-scale exterior beam-column joints simulating the joints in existing reinforced-concrete buildings with non-shear hoop details. The test results showed that the structural performances of the beam-column joints under earthquake including failure mode, load-drift ratio relationship, shear strain of the joints and energy dissipation are strongly affected by the amount of longitudinal reinforcing bars of beams.

This article falls within vital question in quickly builds construction – theoretical method for calculating the slabs and columns of such buildings. Calculation research of buildings with reinforced concrete frame slabs is described in the article. The features of work the collapsible flat plate ceiling in composition of reinforced concrete framework of building are analyzed. Problems in the design of framework building are considered in order to increase its reliability. The suggestions for directions of perfection the calculation of flat plate frame construction elements are proposed in the article. The novelty of this work is to get new theoretical data about bearing capacity and deformability of structural system for the affordable housing construction from reinforced concrete.
