Ultimate limit state - Punching shear
Loaded area
Defines the distance of the critical section from the face of the column.
|
|
As above but for foundation slabs. |
|
Distance between the perimeter of the loaded area and the edge of the opening does not exceed value |
The maximum value of the smallest distance between the perimeter of the loaded area and the edge of an opening. If the distance is less than the input value, the part of the critical section enclosed by the two tangents drawn from the centre of the loaded area to the opening edge is taken as ineffective. |
Dimensions of column for use of the complete perimeter does not exceed value |
The minimal dimension of a column with regard to "d" for which the length of the critical perimeter does not have to be reduced. |
Shear reinforcement
Min thickness of plate |
Minimal thickness of a plate where the shear reinforcement is created. Art. 9.3.2(1) |
Shear resistance
Determines if the axial force is taken into account in the punching shear calculation. |
Column heads
Rectangular column with rectangular column head, lh < 2.0 (0.5) hh |
This option defines the determination of dcrit in the case that lh < 2.0 hh. Art. 6.4.2 (8) |
