Performing the punching shear check

Procedure to perform the punching shear check (except CSN/STN)
  1. Define the model and perform the calculation.

  2. Open service Concrete Advanced.

  3. Use function 2D member > Setup to input the slab parameters or verify their default values.

  4. If necessary, use function 2D member > Member data to define parameters and input values for a specific slab(s) where the punching shear check will be performed.

  5. Use function Punching > Setup to input the punching-shear parameters or verify their default values. (The explanation of individual punching shear parameters is given in chapter General parameters > "particular national standard" > Ultimate limit state - Punching shear.)

  6. If necessary, use function Punching > Punching data to define parameters and input values for a specific node where the punching shear check will be performed.

  7. Use function 2D member > Member design – ULS to calculate the necessary reinforcement areas in required slabs.

  8. Use function Punching > Punching check to start the punching shear check itself.

  9. Define the selection of nodes where the punching shear check should be performed.

  10. Adjust the required load case combination (load case, etc.) and other parameters in the property window.

  11. Press Action button [Refresh] to see the check results on the screen.

  12. Alternatively press button [Preview] to see the results in tabular form.

  13. Or press button [Single check] to perform a separate check of one particular node (see chapter Detailed punching shear check)

  14. When ready, close the service Concrete Advanced.
