Punching Shear CSCT

The App is a learning tool for those of you interested in punching shear in Reinforced Concrete flat slabs. The app contains an implementation of Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT) for punching shear in reinforced concrete flat slabs based on:

Muttoni, Aurelio. "Punching shear strength of reinforced concrete slabs without transverse reinforcement." ACI structural Journal, 4 (2008): 440-450.

The app currently covers the theoretical case of an axisymmetric circular slab. The user can specify the geometry and reinforcement of the slab. An interactive plot is displayed subsequently showing an analytical load - rotation curve as well as the failure criterion based on CSCT. Punching shear failure occurs at the intersection of the two curves.

************The app is NOT SUITABLE FOR DESIGN. It is suitable for researchers working in the field of punching shear as well as for structural engineers interested in learning more about the behavior of flat slabs under concentric loading.
