Proposal for estimating the punching shear load-carrying capacity of steel fibers reinforced concrete flat slabs
Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais(2023)
Abstract
abstract: This paper proposes an adjusted function for estimating the punching shear load-carrying capacity of concrete flat slabs without shear reinforcement according to the Brazilian standard code. The Adjusted function considers the influence of the steel fiber content. Data from 68 steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs (SFRC slabs) were used, simulating the connection of flat slabs with square section columns. These slabs were obtained from a study conducted by 14 different researchers. The parameters used for the adjusted function were the fiber content and the compressive strength of the concrete. The adjusted function was obtained by curve-fitting. The result from the adjusted function shows a relation in the order of 1.3 between the experimental rupture load and the calculated load, a value close to that already obtained by the normative text when the calculation is for conventional concrete. This shows that the proposal presented here keeps the same level of security with a confidence index of 96% in comparison with other authors’ models presented in this study.
