The NTC: 14-01-2008 Italian code (Norme tecniche per le construzioni) has been implemented in the program. This code was already implemented as of previous versions in other CYPE programs (CYPECAD, Metal 3D, Continuous beams, Box Culverts and Foundation elements).
Norme tecniche per le costruzioni.
The NTC: 14-01-2008 Italian code has been implemented in Punching shear verification. This code was already implemented as of previous versions in other CYPE programs (CYPECAD, Metal 3D, Continuous beams, Box Culverts and Foundation elements).
The 2013.g version of Punching shear verification includes examples designed in accordance with Eurocode 2.
The drawings generated by the Punching shear verification program include a plan view of the punching shear reinforcement that has been provided.
The program: Punching shear verification, located in the Structures group of the main CYPE program menu, carries out the Failure Limit State check for punching shear in flat slabs and waffle floor slabs with applied concentrated loads from rectangular or circular supports. The program allows user to check slabs with or without transverse punching shear reinforcement, taking into account the presence of openings, or lightweight sections of the slab, and the layout of the supports (internal, edge or corner).
Punching shear verification has been designed to work as an independent program and as a tool within CYPECAD. Use of the program in CYPECAD is not yet available, but will be implemented in an upcoming version.
Implemented in the program are the EHE-08 Spanish concrete code and Eurocode 2 (EN 1992-1-1). More concrete codes will be implemented in upcoming versions.
