Safety Evaluation of High-Rise Reinforced Concrete Flat Plate Slab Buildings during Construction while Using Shoring and Reshoring Systems

Abstract

AbstractHigh-rise reinforced concrete (RC) flat plate slabs are highly vulnerable to punching shear failure, mainly when temporary shoring/reshoring systems support immature slabs during construction. Despite their widespread use, limited research ...Practical ApplicationsThis paper lays down a practical approach toward strengthening the construction safety of high-rise reinforced concrete flat plate slab buildings during construction while using temporary shoring and reshoring systems to support ...
