Strength improvement of RC flat slab-column connection with SFRC composite-A Review

Abstract

According in the world, the strength improves through using steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC), has been widely used in structures and also mostly useful in slab-column connections. The main reason steel fibre to be used; adding of additional loads, analysis part is in incorrect way, design process and others reasons. SFRC deals with every aspects of structures and its applications. Each specification has its own standards. In this paper, an attempt is made to make a comparison between design standards in Improving strength of rc flat slab-column connections using SFRC to explain the design and its strength parameters. The study of this paper is based on the American Concrete Institute (ACI), Concrete Society technical report 55 and Indian Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE-IS), The comparison results has been taken from (ASCE-IS), the report of 55 in Concrete Society technical gives the optimum value of the load.
