Original Abstract

The paper describes an experimental study on scaled down specimens of flat slabs subjected to punching shear. The study was aimed specifically at flat slabs with shear reinforcement. The experiments were conducted in order to verify the proposed method for predicting the punching shear strength and optimization of its parameters. Most of the current codes in force would be best described as empirical formulations. Proposed method is compared with some of the main methods currently in use, in order to demonstrate its effectiveness. The comparison consists of results of more than one hundred experiments on the flat slabs with shear reinforcement, gathered from publications from all around the world.
