Punching shear failure is a major problem encountered in the design of reinforced concrete flat slabs. The utilization of shear reinforcement via shear studs or other means has become a choice for improving the punching shear capacity. In this study, a new alternative of reinforcement modalities were tested and demonstrated the effect of self-compact concrete on the punching shear capacity, beside that compared between the difference codes to identify the suitable one for determining the position of critical section of punching shear. Nevertheless, in this investigation, the proposed reinforcement system is examined for interior columns only. An experimental work consisting of six specimens: five of them were cast with normal reinforced concrete and one was cast with self-compact strength concrete. The obtained results indicate that the proposed shear reinforcement system has a positive effect in the enhancement of the punching shear capacity of interior slab–column connection of self-compact strength concrete.

Punching shear failure is a brittle failure and it is one of the most important types of failure to be considered while designing a reinforced concrete flat slab. This paper aims to study the performance of reinforced concrete flat slabs equipped with different punching shear reinforcement parameters. Three flat slab specimens were cast where two specimens contain punching shear reinforcement in the form of shear stirrups and structural shearbands. The test specimens have length and width of 1000mm and thickness of 185mm for the slabs. The slabs are connected to a column at the center with length and breadth of 300mm and a depth of 700mm. The test specimens were supported by steel plates with length and breadth of 150mm and a thickness of 25mm at the four corners of the slab. The test specimens are loaded on the column face at the top. The deflection, strain and crack pattern were observed and recorded.

The use of flat slabs in constructions due to its many functional and economic advantages is wide-spread. Behavior of flat slabs in shear and flexure is a fairly complex problem. Therefore, the punching shear failure belongs to one of the most critical aspects in the design of concrete buildings.The purpose of this paper is to describe a framework of the proposed method for predicting the punching shear of flat slabs with shear reinforcement. Most of the current codes in force are mainly based on empirical formulation. The proposed method is based on a strut-and-tie model and therefore could be considered as an analytical approach. For the purpose of demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method, the method is compared with some of the main methods currently in use, such as Eurocode EC2, ACI 318 and Model Code 2010. The comparison consists of results of more than 90 experiments on flat slabs with shear reinforcement, gathered from publications from all around the world.

AbstractSeveral types of punching shear reinforcements are available for increase of the maximum resistance against punching shear failure of flat slabs. Conventional punching shear reinforcement in form of stirrups or double headed studs are in use for decades. They are well known due to their simplicity and good performance. A new type of punching reinforcement has been developed for the case, where the flat slab exposed to extreme load and resistance of conventional type of punching shear reinforcement is not sufficient. Another designs point out that new construction system can reduce the amount of CO2. This paper presents some results of parametric study focused on design of the flat slab using different types of punching shear reinforcement and considering the concrete consumption.

Abstract Steel fibers in reinforced concrete increase the performance of slab-column connection once they increase ductility and energy absorption capacity of the concrete. The use of fibers in flat slabs may increase strength and change the mode of failure. The objective of this work is to present an experimental evaluation of punching shear strength of reinforced concrete flat slab with steel fibers and punching shear reinforcement. Eight square slabs, size 1800 mm by 1800 mm by 130mm, were loaded until failure by punching shear around the column. The models were divided in two groups, depending on the type of the concrete used (with or without steel fibers). The steel fiber volume used in the slabs of second group was of 0.9%. Each group was composed of four slabs: one without shear reinforcement and three with shear reinforcement (studs) distributed radially around the column. The use of steel fibers increased the ultimate strength of all flat slabs. In one of the slabs, the association of steel fibers with shear reinforcement changed the failure surface from outside to inside the punching shear reinforcement region.
