Numerical investigations on the shear capacity of reinforced
concrete slabs under concentrated loads
K. Reissen & J. Hegger
Institute of Structural Concrete, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany
ABSTRACT: The shear capacity of reinforced concrete slabs without shear reinforcement has been investigated
at the Institute of Structural Concrete at RWTH Aachen University. To determine the effective width for shear
underconcentrated loads,13 full-scaletests onsingle-span slabswith varying slabwidths ...
