2 Level I of approximation (preliminary design)
Reaction forces
The goal of the preliminary design is to check if the dimensions of the
structure are reasonable with respect to the punching shear strength and if Inner (C5): Vd ≈ 692 kN
punching shear reinforcement is needed.
Corner (C1, C3): Vd ≈ 93 kN
Edge (C2): Vd ≈ 265 kN
The reaction forces in the columns are estimated by using contributive areas.
(C4 and C6 are not governing
Vd ≈ 244 kN)

Control perimeter
The effective depth dv is assumed to be 200 mm. Inner: b0 = ke ⋅ ( 4 ⋅ bc + d v ⋅ π ) = 0.90 ⋅ ( 4 ⋅ 260 + 200 ⋅ π ) = 1501mm

Shear reinforcement

calculate the minimal needed value of factor ksys. VRd ,c 249

γc f ck VRd ,c VRd ,c 73

Vd 265
Edge: k sys ≥ = = 2.09
ksys depends on the performance of the used shear reinforcement system. The VRd ,c 127
model code proposes a value of ksys = 2.0 for system compliant with model
code detailing rules (§7.13.5.3). Higher values (up to ksys = 2.8) can be used if
more restrictive detailing rules are adopted and if the placing of the transverse
reinforcement is checked at the construction site.
Conclusions
Inner column: Shear reinforcement is necessary and sufficient (accounting for
the values of ksys) to ensure punching shear strength
Corner columns: Shear reinforcement might probably not be necessary. This has
to be confirmed by a higher level of approximation.
Edge columns: Shear reinforcement might probably be necessary.

The thickness of the slab is sufficient if shear reinforcement is used.

control perimeter (gd + qd)·Ac. Vd = N d − ( g d + qd ) ⋅ Ac = 664 − 15.6 ⋅ 0.21 = 661 kN

Control perimeter
In case of inner columns, the centroid of the column corresponds to the Md 8 ⋅106 4 4

Punching strength without shear reinforcement
The punching shear strength of the concrete is not sufficient. Consequently, f ck 30
shear reinforcement is necessary. V Rd ,c = kψ b0 d v = 0.300 1642 ⋅ 204 ⋅ 10 −3 = 367 kN ≤ Vd = 661 kN

Punching strength with shear reinforcement


Firstly, one has to check if the design shear force Vd is smaller than the f ck
maximum punching strength VRd,max. This is done assuming ksys=2. VRd,max = k sysVRd ,c = 2 ⋅ 367 = 734 kN ≤ b0 d v = 1223 kN
γc
The design shear force Vd is below the maximum punching strength VRd,max.
VRd,max = 734 kN ≥ Vd = 661kN
Therefore, the slab can be reinforced with shear reinforcement complying

reinforcement needs to be provided to prevent a progressive collapse of the f yd ⋅ ( f t f y )k ⋅ sin α ult 435 ⋅ 1.08 ⋅ sin (20°)
structure.
For the design of the integrity reinforcement, the accidental load case can be f ck 30

The material properties can be found in chapter 5 of model code 2010. π π

It is assumed that only straight bars will be used, thus αult = 20°. φint = 14 mm ≤ 0.12d res = 0.12 ⋅ 166 = 20 mm

With respect to integrity reinforcement, two restrictions should be fulfilled:


-the integrity reinforcement should at least be composed of four bars
-the diameter of the integrity bars øint has to be chosen such that
øint ≤ 0.12·dres

Corners of walls should be checked following the same methodology.
