Abstract
In order to increase the strength and deformation capacity of flat slabs, punching shear reinforcement is used as an effective
solution. Several types of punching shear reinforcing systems have been developed in the past. This work aims to analyze the
behavior of unbonded post-tensioned slab subjected to punching load provided with “Inverted-U Shaped Reinforcement”. By using a
finite element software, the results were compared with that obtained from an experimental investigation previously done. The
experimental results were also compared according to ACI provisions for punching shear strength. Good correlation was done
between what was tested and the numerical results.
Keywords: punching shear, post-tensioned slabs, shear strength, finite element software, Inverted-U shaped reinforcement
