Lattice Shear Reinforcement for Slab-Column Connection Subjected to Unbalanced Moment

Failure Analysis of Column-Slab Connections with Stud Shear Reinforcement

Finite Element Modeling of GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Interior Slab-Column Connections Subjected to Moment Transfer

A finite element model (FEM) was constructed using specialized three-dimensional (3D) software to investigate the punching shear behavior of interior slab-column connections subjected to a moment-to-shear ratio of 0.15 m. The FEM was then verified against the experimental results of full-scale interior slab-column connections reinforced with glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP) bars previou...

Evaluation of the Efficiency of Shear Studs for Punching Shear Resistance of Slab-Column Connections

Evaluation of Column-Tree Moment Resisting Connection with End Plates and Haunched Beam (RESEARCH NOTE)

The column-tree constructional schemes allows for a reliable and convenient erection of moment resisting steel frames. Strengthening of column-tree connection with a haunch part can significantly improve seismic behavior of whole system. In the current study behavior of column-tree connections with haunched beams and end plate splices have been investigated. Special attention was paid for evalu...

Drift Capacity Models and Shear Strength Degrading Models for Slab-column Connections

Data collected from shake table tests of two, approximately one-third scale, two story flat plate frames utilizing shear reinforcement, as well as data from prior tests, were evaluated to assess the inter-story drift ratios when punching failures occur for reinforced concrete and post-tensioned slab-column connections with and without shear reinforcement. The drift ratios at punching for the sh...
