Strengthening Foundation Slabs below Ground Water Level against Punching Shear
Abstract:
The paper deals with strengthening structures against punching shear with focus on strengthening of existing concrete foundation slabs. These can be slabs of basements of residential, administrative and other buildings. Also, foundations slabs placed on piles can be considered. This is very specific case of strengthening where only one surface of the structure is accessible. Strengthening is often designed using massive new bearing elements, which are space-demanding. Attention is paid to the development of technology that minimizes the resulting constraints on the surrounding area and is sufficiently effective. Inspiration is strengthening of ceiling flat slabs with additional shear reinforcement. Compared to the ceiling slabs, a larger load must be bear to the foundation structures and therefore the shear reinforcements demand larger dimensions. Mechanical expanded anchors are used for anchoring on the inaccessible side. A significant contribution of mechanical anchoring is demonstrated in the tests results which make possible more efficient design of additional punching reinforcement.
