Punching behavior of BubbleDeck type reinforced concrete slabs

Abstract: The BubbleDeck type slab (BD) is a reinforced concrete (RC) flat slab that includes recycled plastic hollow spheres (RPHS) in its core for decreasing its dead weight. However, punching capacity of BD slabs can be a critical aspect, thereby this work is devoted to assess experimentally its punching behavior. An experimental program composed of four real scale prototypes, representative of RC flat slabs in punching loading conditions, was carried out. Two of these slabs are of BD type, while the other two do not… Show more

“…• When the load is up to 61% to 95% of the punching failure load, the curves illustrate the case of gradually decreasing compressive strain on concrete leading toward failure. These findings match with punching tests using flat RC slabs reported by other authors [28,29]. Tensile strains can be noticed shortly before punching.…”

“…On the other hand, the insertion of trusses had contributed to an increase of 30% in comparison to the other slabs. However, the experiment generated overestimated results and the number of tests was not sufficient to obtain concrete results [8].…”

“…Previous and recent research studies of these types of slabs containing voiding elements concentrate mainly on global flexural [9,10] and the shear and punching behavior [11][12][13] of slabs, neglecting the "simple" transfer of forces by the joints. A relatively recent disaster in The Netherlands with a total collapse of a parking building showed the importance of the joints in global system behavior [14,15].…”
