The real strength of laterally restrained reinforced concrete slabs
… punching strength of laterally restrained slabs subjected to concentrated loading, good correlation with experimental data was achieved. The proposed method can predict both modes of punching failures, i.e flexural and shear. This suggests that the proposed method is more suitable for …

The response of reinforced concrete slabs to hard missile impact
… the perforation and scabbing of model, steel reinforced concrete targets. The test rig was especially designed using high pressure compressed air to accelerate a steel missile along a barrel to impact upon the target. This system can produce a variety of impact forces by either varying the …

Strengthening reinforced concrete slabs using a combination of CFRP and UHPC
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are widely used in construction. Due to aging infrastructure, increased loads, and inadequate maintenance, RC structures need to be retrofitted for prolonged lifespan and increased capacity. Traditional methods of strengthening involve the installation of fiber …

Yield-line analysis and experimental study of reinforced concrete slabs containing openings
Four rectangular, isotropically reinforced concrete slabs were constructed and loaded until collapse. All slabs were fixed on three edges with the fourth edge free. Three slabs contained openings at various locations while the fourth remained solid. The magnitudes of deflections were measured …

Effects of Shear Reinforcement on the Large-Deflection Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Slabs
… design guides and manuals for blast-resistant reinforced concrete structures stipulate the use of shear reinforcement in roof, floor, and wall slabs irrespective of shear stress levels. The primary purpose of the shear reinforcement is not to resist shear forces, but rather to improve …

Assessment of beam-to-column joint behaviour in steel-timber composite systems
Reinforced concrete slabs are among the structural components with the highest levels of embodied energy and carbon. Accordingly, replacing conventional reinforced concrete slabs with timber slab can potentially reduce the embodied energy and carbon footprint and provide opportunities for effective …
