Performance of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs Exposed to Fire [PDF]
A number of researchers have focused on the performance of reinforced concrete slabs exposed to fire. These studies have shown that the membrane forces and the redistribution of bending moments in the slabs considerably affected the behaviour of the ...

Analytical Study of Punching Shear Capacity in Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs with Opening Strengthened with Steel Plates and Shear Stud [PDF]
Reinforced concrete flat slabs are widely employed in structural systems. The location of the slab-column connection is the most sensitive part of the flat slab due to the existence of a high flexural anchor and shear force.

Comparative Analysis of RCC Flat Slab with Post-Tensioned Flat Slab
A floor system plays an important role in overall cost and service of the building. Flat plate/slabs are economical since they have no beams and hence can reduce the floor height by 10-15%. In this paper analysis of RC flat slab with drop and post-tensioned flat slab with drop is carried out.

Punching Shear Characterization of Steel Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs
Punching shear failure in thin slabs under concentrated loads can cause shear stresses near columns. The use of steel fiber is a practical way to improve a slab-column connection's punching strength and deformation capacity.

Enhancement of flexural behavior of hybrid flat slab by using SIFCON
Flat slab systems are widely utilized in construction due to their versatility and efficient use of space. Nevertheless, they are susceptible to flexural failure, particularly in the tension zone. To address this issue, slurry-infiltrated fiber concrete (

Punching shear in concrete reinforced flat slabs with steel fibers and shear reinforcement
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.
