Flat slabs in contemporary buildings are most commonly supported by rectangular cross-section columns. Research of slabs supported by rectangular cross-section columns for punching is rather narrow. The purpose of this work was the experimental research of slabs punching by rectangular cross-section columns and adjustment of their design method. Reinforced concrete slabs 6 cm in thickness without transverse reinforcement were used as testing specimens. During tests load on the slab was transferred using stamps. Side ratios for stamps varied from 1 to 5 in experiments. Strength and strain properties of concrete were determined before slabs testing for punching. Ultimate loads, that resulted in slab punching, were acquired from test results. Formulae for punching load are suggested for rectangular cross-section columns punching based on obtained results. Generalized analysis of experimental research results shows that slab strength for punching is also influenced by short side of rectangular cross-section to slab thickness ratio.
