Abstract
This research is devoted to investigating experimentally the punching shear strength of reactive powder concrete slabs under monotonic loading. All slabs have the same flexural reinforcement and same dimensions (1000mm length,600mm width,50mm thickness). The experimental program includes casting and testing of sixteen slabs tested under monotonic loading. The major parameters adopted in the current research include the shape of column (circle, square), column size (twocolumn sizes), number of columns (one, two), and the distance between two columns (3d,5d,7d). Results showed that, the slabs with circular column sections have slightly higher ultimate load than those with square column sections. An increasing column area increases the load of punching shear failure. It was found that the ultimate failure load for slabs with two columns is greater than the slabs with one column. Related to the effect of distance between the two columns for monotonic, it was found that the slabs maximum load reaches the maximum value at distance between the two columns equal to(7d) for a circular section with a diameter of 85mm and 113mm and square section with dimensions of (100*100)mm. While the maximum failure load reaches the maximum value when the distance between two columns (d) for a square section with the dimension of (75*75)mm. Related to the crack patterns, it was noticed that for slabs with larger columns sections with the distance between columns equal to 7d, the failure zone extended (in a large direction) to the slab sides
