Punching shear strength of waffle flat slabs
Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021 This research aimed to compare the ultimate load of 10 waffle flat slabs with different sizes of solid area and spacing between ribs. For this, a non-linear computational simulation of the slabs was carried out until their failure using the engineering ...

Slab pull, slab weakening, and their relation to deep intra-slab seismicity [PDF]
, 2005 Subduction zone seismicity is highly variable. Great earthquakes occur at few subduction zones around the world, with significant variation in size and frequency of deep events. Interactions between overriding and subducting plates and slab pull strength

Application of yield line theory in pre-cast waffle slab
, 2014 Analysis of precast waffle slabs have concentrated on the rib portions, while the slab portion were left unanalyzed. This has led to cracks or outright failure of the slab portions due to under reinforcement.

Experimental Study of Punching Shear on Reinforced Concrete Waffle Slabs Strengthened by CFRP Sheets
Tikrit Journal of Engineering SciencesFor the last five decades, researchers have been studying the punching shear of two-way reinforced slabs at column supports in structural testing laboratories. Limited tests are available on retrofitted waffle slab punching behavior. These are necessary
