Original Abstract

Over the past few years, punching shear has been in the forefront of both research teams and professional public due to a new approach to its verification according to Model Code 2010. From this topic, the task of flat slabs strengthening against punching shear has arisen. This problem, and in particular the problem of flat slabs strengthened by additional concrete column heads, is the focus of this paper. Structures are analysed using a 3D FEM models including material and geometric nonlinearity. The way of modelling is validated against experiments on non-strengthened flat slabs subjected to punching shear. At first, strengthening with a rigid connection at the interface between structures is considered and then, several different types of connection at the interface are evaluated. Finally, strengthening of structures with varying lengths of top flexural reinforcement in the slab is modelled while minimum anchorage length outside the additional column head is verified.
