Abstract

Flat plate systems are widely used in reinforced concrete structures. Using of high-strength concrete has been common recently. In the current international codes of practice for concrete structures, the design methods for assessment of punching shear capacity are based on experimental data of flat plates with Normal-Strength Concrete (NSC). The aim of this research is to come up with new formula for punching shear resistance, consistent with data of flat plates made from High-Strength Concrete (HSC). Test results of 61 HSC interior slab-column connection specimens were collected from the literature. The available test results were not only compared with current code provisions but with equations proposed by other researchers as well. A new formula for predicting punching shear strength of HSC interior slab-column connections is proposed. An innovative design equation is also suggested.
