Influence of the column rectangularity index and of the boundary conditions in the punching resistance of slab-column connections

Experimental evidence indicates that both the column rectangularity index and the boundary conditions of the connection may affect the ultimate punching resistance. This paper presents general aspects of these topics and, through the analysis of experimental results of tests on 131 slabs, evaluates...
