The paper presents the tridimensional numeric model of an inner slab‐column connection of reinforced concrete, which was previously tested against the punching shear in the lab of the University of Brasília. The numerical analysis has been carried out by the finite element method, using the software ABAQUS. To evaluate the sensitivity of the main factors that influence the responses of the model,...
Due to the low lateral stiffness of slabs supported on columns alone, reinforced concrete flat plates are typically combined with other structural elements, such as shear walls. In these structures, the slab–column connections are designed to carry gravity loads only, and the shear walls are required to resist both gravity and lateral forces. Therefore, the slab–wall connections are essential for...
