In flat-plate floors, slab-column connections are broken down with a brittle shear failure. And it can cause the collapse of the whole structures. Thus, the proper method of shear reinforcement in flat plate-column connections must be required. The objective of this study is to compare shear reinforcement specimens using lattice bars to no shear reinforcement specimens in view of shear strength and ductility of the flat plate-column connections. The test results have shown that shear reinforcement specimens varying $\rho$, $b_0$/d and $C_1$/$C_2$ increase in shear strength by 36.85% and in ductility by 9.16 for no shear reinforcement specimens on the average. This results confirm the effectiveness of this type of shear reinforcement in improving shear strength and ductility.

This study investigates the horizontal shear behavior of an interface between precast concrete (PC) and topping concrete(RC), and evaluates the horizontal based on the investigations by the experimental. Horizontal shear strength in connected surface is determined by the roughness an interface and the shear reinforcement or not. In this study, the main experimental parameters are the shear reinforcement types in the shape of loop-type and lattice-type, rebar spacing. A total of four specimens were shear strength tested and manufactured. As a result, the horizontal shear strength of reinforced connected surface was found to be controlled by deformation in vertical direction. Comparison of reinforcement shape, the mean initial crack load loop type specimens, the average maximum load and the junction of the average in terms of initial stiffness, respectively 33.7%, 45.9% and 55.2% were large enough. Evaluation results for shear strength equation of existing standard domestic, the loop-type reinforced 2.32 to 4.23 times, lattice-type reinforced 1.65 to 3.06 times appears to be higher. Behavior of interface or strength of structural design criteria was fairly safe side. It does not have any problems in the applied field is considered.
