Punching shear strength of steel fibre reinforced lightweight concrete slabs. [PDF]
, 1981 One of the problems in slab-column connections is the punching shear failure at over loads. Such failures are sudden and catastrophic, and are undesirable since they do not allow an overall yield mechanism to ...

Pre-Cracked Concrete Shear Strengthened with External CFRP Strips [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2013 In reinforced concrete design, there are situations where transfer of shear across a specific plane needs to be considered. Examples of such situation include corbels, bearing shoes, ledger beam bearing, and a host of connection between precast concrete ...

Calculation Method Analysis for Structure Strengthening with External Reinforcement
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 Abstract This article describes the main provisions of the calculating method for the gain of reinforced concrete structures by the system of external reinforcement. As an example, the calculation of monolithic reinforced concrete slab with carbon fiber material using the SCAD Office software package was considered and analyzed, which ...
