Two-way shear full behavior of reinforced concrete flat slabs under membrane tensile forces

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
Recent reinforced concrete Flat slabs (RC) failures under two-way shear have raised a question mark on the reliability of the current understanding of the two-way shear design.

The effect of the W-shape stirrups shear reinforcement on the dynamic behavior of RC flat solid slab subjected to the low-velocity impact loading

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2023
Reinforced concrete flat solid slabs may experience explosive and impact loads. Reinforced concrete flat solid slabs have been studied under static and dynamic loads. Researchers have widely explored numerous reinforcing strategies to strengthen RC slabs

Behavior of composite pre-flat slabs in resisting punching shear forces

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2020
Due to large use of the composite pre-flat slabs “two layers slabs” especially manifested in pre-cast system slabs such as frequently used in bridge dicks, large thickness slabs casted on two layers or change usage of existing structure.

Punching shear in flat slabs by strut and tie model

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021
Research on behavior of flat slabs under punching shear, performed by Kinnunen, Regan and Muttoni influenced the main design recommendations. Meanwhile, studies about strut and tie model developed by Schlaich for beams, deep beams and corbels also ...

Optimum Design of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering and Technology Journal, 2015
This paper deals with the problem of optimum design of reinforced concrete flat slabs by genetic algorithm. Four case studies are discussed; flat slabs with and without edge beams, and, flat-plate with and without edge beams. The cost function represents

Punching Shear Strength of Voided Slab: Literature Review and Evaluation of Design Codes

open access: yesWasit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2022
Despite of the economic advantages provided by the voided slabs, their design against punching shear failure, as suggested by the current building codes, are based on the equations derived from tests on flat slabs.

Influence of the Distribution and Level of Post-Tensioning Force on the Punching Shear of Flat Slabs

open access: yesDesigns, 2022
Punching shear is the most common failure mechanism of slabs that are supported directly on columns. The slab–column connection is always vulnerable to critical punching shear; thus, it is necessary to investigate the effect of various parameters on the ...

Comparison of the post-tensioned, solid, hollow block, and flat slabs in terms of economy considering different span lengths

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2023
From among the several types of slabs, there is uncertainty about the most cost-effective one for structures with short, medium, and long spans. A study comparing the cost of the solid, flat, hollow block (HB), and post-tensioned (PT) slabs for 4, 6, and
