Geometrical features, reinforcement layouts and in-plane forces provided by external vertical elements, such as shear walls, can affect the membrane action and, consequently, the punching shear resistance. This paper presents a study on reinforced concrete continuous flat slab whose lateral expansion is restrained by the presence of vertical elements considering also shrinkage effects.armaturearmature d'effort tranchantbéton armépoinçonnementretraitreinforcementshear reinforcementreinforced concretepunchingshrinkageDependency of punching shear resistance and membrane action on boundary conditions of reinforced concrete continuous slabstext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
