Recent Development in Reinforced Concrete Slab Analysis, Design, and Serviceability
Also Known As:
ACI SP-287:2012 is a collection of eight papers presented at the ACI Fall 2011 Convention. These papers cover various topics related to reinforced concrete slabs, including seismic resistance, post-tensioning with CFRP, historical perspectives on slab design, performance of shearbands, shear capacity of slabs, flexural reinforcement for punching shear resistance, special considerations in slab design, and evaluating punching shear strength without shear reinforcement.
The first paper discusses the requirements for seismic-resistant flat plates in terms of strength and ductility. The second paper focuses on the development and repair systems for un-bonded post-tensioned slabs using CFRP. The third paper provides a historical perspective on the evolution of two-way slab design. The fourth paper examines the performance of shearbands in concrete slab-column connections. The fifth paper investigates the shear capacity of slabs and slab strips loaded close to support. The sixth paper emphasizes the importance of flexural reinforcement for punching shear resistance of slabs. The seventh paper discusses special considerations in the design of reinforced concrete slabs for a specific hospital addition. The final paper proposes the use of artificial neural networks to evaluate punching shear strength of slabs without shear reinforcement.
