Abstract Much of the current code provisions for designing slab-column connections against punching shear are based on empirically derived formulations based on tests of partial scale isolated slab-column specimens. Although many experiments have been conducted on shear reinforced concrete flat slabs supported on columns, due to cost or time constraints, there are still many parameters that have not been adequately studied in the laboratory. These tests can be supplemented by analytical results of properly calibrated nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) to enhance the existing experimental database and formulate rational design recommendations for future codes. This paper presents a rational approach for calibrating an NLFEA model in ABAQUS using interior and edge slab-column connection specimens. The calibration includes a study to determine how to effectively model the shear reinforcement and shear reinforced area. This further includes a detailed analysis of the modeling of the shear reinforcing elements to ensure appropriate rotational capability of the shear reinforced region of the slab without significantly reducing the predicted capacity of the model. The calibrated models show good agreement with test data based on load-deflection, moment-curvature, and bolt strain behavior. |
