Article Efficiency of Shear Studs Manufactured From Threaded Bars on the Punching Behavior of Flat Slabs(Golden Light Publishing, 2023) Saatçi, Selçuk; Saatcı, Selçuk; Yaşayanlar, YoncaPunching resistance in flat slab systems in reinforced concrete structures is often provided with drop panels or shear reinforcement around columns. Shear studs are effectively used in these structures as shear reinforcement. However, factory-made shear studs may not be available in all locations and small quantities for small projects. Therefore, cheap shear studs that can be manufactured from widely available materials in small quantities can be very useful in certain cases. In this study, shear studs manufactured from threaded bars, widely available in hardware stores, are used for providing punching resistance to flat slabs. Stud heads were formed with T-section nuts. Four slab specimens, two with shear studs and two without, were cast and tested under concentrated loads at their mid-point. The slabs had 2150×2150×150 mm dimensions and they were cast with two different longitudinal reinforcement ratios. Test results showed that manufactured shear studs significantly increased the load and deformation capacities of the slabs. Slabs with shear studs were able to show up to three times higher bending deformations and they were able to sustain up to 50% higher loads. The study has shown that these studs can be effectively used for punching strengthening purposes in flat plate systems or in other cases where punching resistance is needed.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Çelik Fiber Katkısının Farklı Boyuna Donatı Oranına Sahip Betonarme Döşemelerin Zımbalama Davranışı Üzerinde Etkileri(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2019) Saatçi, Selçuk; Yaşayanlar, Süleyman; Yaşayanlar, Yonca; Batarlar, BaturayIn this study, reinforced concrete slabs in two groups, having 0.004 (D1 series) and 0.002 (D2 series) longitudinal reinforcement ratios in two orthogonal directions, were cast with concrete mixes containing 0%, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% steel fiber ratios in volume. Slabs were 2150x2150x150 mm in dimensions. Eight slabs were tested in total under static loads. For slabs without steel fibers, the slab with higher reinforcement ratio showed punching failure before the yielding of longitudinal bars, whereas the slab with lower reinforcement ratio displayed a significantly higher ductility before final punching failure. Addition of steel fibers increased the punching load capacity up to two times. However, although addition of steel fibers also increased the maximum displacements in D1 series slabs, it did not make any significant effect on the maximum displacements of D2 series slabs. Maximum displacements were still controlled by the yielding of longitudinal reinforcement. Increasing the steel fiber ratio increased both the punching capacity and the maximum displacements in D1 series slabs, but it did not make a significant difference in behavior of D2 series beyond 1% fiber ratio. An analytical study of the test specimens were also performed using Critical Shear Crack Theory and based on comparisons of experimental and analytical results some improvements in the model were proposed. © 2019 Gazi Universitesi Muhendislik-Mimarlik.
