FRP-RC Slabs Under Punching Shear: Assessment of Existing Models

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the punching shear behavior of concrete slabs reinforced with FRP. We compared and quickly described 21 strength models. In addition, based on overall performance, strength models were contrasted with one another in terms of the experimentally observed strength. Conclusions were made and discussed, which may help future design codes evolve more effectively, It was decided where to focus future studies. This might aid in the development of future design codes. The ACI is the least realize model, although taking into account the effects of size, dowel action, depth-to-control perimeter ratio, concrete compressive strength, and shear span-to-depth ratio.
