[EN] A dynamic punching shear model is presented for general sudden column removal cases which was validated against data from a purpose-built full-scale two-storey reinforced concrete building subjected to a sudden corner ...
Buitrago, Manuel; Sagaseta, Juan; Adam, Jose M(Elsevier, 2018-10)
[EN] The most frequently used technique to construct reinforced concrete (RC) building structures is the shoring or propping of successive floors, in which the slabs are supported by the shores until the concrete acquires ...
