Abstract
The behavior of reinforced concrete moment resisting frame structures in recent earthquakes all over the world has highlighted
the consequences of poor performance of beam column joints. Beam column joints in a reinforced concrete moment resisting
frame are crucial zones for the transfer of loads effectively between the connecting elements (i.e. beams and columns) in the
structure. In 1976, the design of beam column joint is first recommended and subsequently revision is carried out in the year
1985. Design specifications only for the beam column joints are given in IS 13920:1993. There is no provision for the type of
column joint whether it be Edge column, Corner column or Interior column. Effect of slab is also not considered in this code.
Hence a study and investigation is required on the beam-column joint with slab to suggest improvement in reinforcement detailing
based on influence of slab. Two scaled specimens, one Interior Beam-Column joint with slab (BCJS) and another Interior Beam-
Column joint without slab (BCJ) were made. Tests were carried out in structural laboratory and the results are discussed here.
Keywords: Column joint with slab( BCJS), Beam – Column joint without slab (BCJ), Moment resisting frame, Interior
joint, Energy dissipation, Ductility factor.

1. INTRODUCTION
In the analysis of reinforced concrete moment resisting
frames, the joints are generally assumed as rigid. In Indian
practice, the joint is usually neglected for specific design
with attention being restricted to provision of sufficient
anchorage for beam longitudinal reinforcement. This may be
acceptable when the frame is not subjected to earthquake
loads. There have been many catastrophic failures reported
in the past 50 earthquakes, in particular with Turkey and
Taiwan earthquakes occurred in 1999, which have been
attributed to beam column joints. The poor design practice
of beam column joints is compounded by the high demand
imposed by the adjoining flexural members (beams and
columns) in the event of mobilizing their inelastic capacities
to dissipate seismic energy. Unsafe design and detailing
within the joint region jeopardize the entire structure, even if
other structural members conform to the design
requirements. Since past three decades, extensive research
has been carried out on studying the behavior of joints under
seismic conditions through experimental and analytical
studies. Various international codes of practices have been
undergoing periodic revisions to incorporate the research
findings into practice.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
Hikmat E.Zerbe et al (1990) studied the seismic response
of connections in two bay RC frame subassemblies with a
floor. It was found that the presence of slab increases the
shear strength in the joints and was not affected by the
energy dissipation capacity in continues subassembly.
Lateral load resistance increased by as much as 30 percent at
3 percent lateral drift and degradation of stiffness. Based on
the results, the suggestion is made to include the effect of a
floor slab in the procedure for designing beam-column
connections. Gilson N.Guimaraes et al (1992) studied the
evaluation of joint-shear provisions for interior beam-
column slab connections using high-strength materials of
four interior beam column slab connections constructed with
combinations of normal and high strength and reinforcement
are presented and existing joint shear provisions are
evaluated for use in designs of connections constructed with
high strength materials. Devados Menon et al (2007)
conducted a detailed investigation of the design of RC beam-
column joints. In this study three international code of practice
like ACI 318M-02, NZ 3101:1995, pr EN1998-1 were followed
for designing the RC beam-column joints under seismic load.
The performance specimens which had details as per various
codes were compared. They concluded that there is need to
revise the code IS13920:1993. This had become inadequate in
minimum column width, column/beam flexural strength ratio,
and nominal shear strength of beam column joints and effective
shear area of joint. Burcu B.Canbolat et al (2008) conducted
an experimental investigation on seismic behaviour of
eccentric reinforced concrete beam–column-slab
connections. The study focused on the effect of eccentricity
of spandrel beams with respect to the column. Specimens
included a floor slab and transverse beam to evaluate the
effect of slab participation. Test results indicated that the
floor system significantly reduced the negative influence of
eccentricity and observed that damage was reduced. The

joint shear stresses resisted by the connections, without
major damage was higher than the current design values.
This was due to the participation of a larger area of the joint
region in the resisting shear, which indicates that
“recommendations for design of beam column connections
in monolithic reinforced concrete structures ( ACI 352R-02)
for effective joint width are conservative”. Bindu.K.R et al
(2008) conducted a detailed investigation on the
performance of exterior beam column joints with cross-
inclined bars under Seismic loading. They investigated the
effect of inclined bars at the joint region. Four exterior beam
column joint were cast and tested under cyclic load. The
specimens which had joint reinforcement as per code IS
13920:1993 with inclined bars and the specimens without
inclined bars were tested. They concluded that the specimen
with inclined bars showed more ductility and energy
absorption capacity than specimen without inclined bars.

3.9 Flexural Strength Test
Beam specimens of size 10 x10 x50 cm were cast and tested
as shown in Fig. 3 to determine the flexural strength of
concrete at the age of 28th days. The bearing surfaces of the
supporting and loading rollers are wiped clean, and any
loose sand or other material removed from the surfaces of
the specimen where they are to make contact with the
rollers. The specimen is then placed in the machine in such a
manner that the load is applied to the uppermost surface as
cast in the mould, along two lines spaced 13.3 cm apart. The
axis of the specimen is carefully aligned with the axis of the
loading device. The load is applied without shock and
increasing continuously at a rate such that the extreme fibre
stress increases at approximately 0.7kg/sq.cm/min that is at
a rate of 180kg/min. The load is increased until the
specimen fails, and the maximum load applied to the
specimen during the test is recorded.
The flexural strength of the specimen is expressed as the
modulus of rupture fb and the results are given in table 8.

4. ANALYSIS OF FRAME
A four storey two bay frames including 1.5 m foundation
depth multistorey reinforced concrete building falling under
the seismic Zone – III has been analyzed using STADD.pro.
The specimens were designed for seismic load according to
IS 1893(Part I): 2002 & IS 13920: 1993. Based on the
critical combination of load, the value for bending moment,
shear force and axial forces were taken for the design of
Beam - Column joint with slab (BCJS) and Beam – Column
joint without slab (BCJ). The maximum moment occurred at
the ground floor level. Ground floor interior joint is
considered for the experimental work.
The three dimensional view of the building taken for
analysis is shown in Fig.4 and elevation is shown in Fig. 5.

5. SPECIMEN
Beam – Column joint specimen consisted of four numbers
of beam (North, South, East and West) and two numbers of
column (Top and Bottom).These are monolithically
connected at the joint. Another specimen was made as said
above with 40mm thick slab. Based on the end condition of
building the moment coefficient was calculated. Detailing of
reinforcements are based on the code Sp 34. Following Fig.
6 shows the detail of reinforcements.
It was difficult to make the test specimens to the original
scale to suit the loading arrangement facilities. Hence the
test specimens were reduced to one fourth scale .The cross
section of the reduced beam was 100 mm×100 mm and the
cross section of the reduced column was 100 mm×100 mm.
4 numbers of 10 mm ø bars were used as main bars in the
column. Transverse reinforcement in the column with 6mm
ø bars at a spacing of 40mm c/c up to 120 mm from face of
joint and 60mm c/c for middle portion of 180mm and then
spacing of 40mm c/c for the remaining length. 2 numbers of
8 mm diameter bars as tension reinforcement and 2 numbers
of 8 mm diameter bars as compression reinforcement were
used for all beams and stirrups of 6mm ø bars at a spacing of
50mm c/c up to 150 mm from face of joint and 150mm c/c
for middle portion of 300mm and then spacing of 50mm c/c
for the remaining length were used .The thickness of the
slab was 40 mm.
Fig. 6 Reinforcement Details of Beam-Column Joint
Specimen as per the code IS 13920:1993.
The reinforced concrete Beam-Column joint with slab and
Beam-Column joint without slab specimens were cast and
cured for 28 days. The specimens were placed in the
reaction frame and tested under cyclic loading in the
structural laboratory. The column ends were provided by
pinned connections. On one end of the column, an axial load
of 50 kN was applied by using a hydraulic jack of 500 kN
capacity. Cyclic load was applied at the free end of all the
beams by using a hydraulic jack through load cell. Linear
Variable Differential Transducers (LVDTs) were placed on
the extreme edge of the all beams to show the deflection that
occurred at the point of application of load on the beam. The
following Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 show the details of the BCJ and
BCJS specimens respectively.

6. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
6.1 Load Vs Deflection
Maximum load and corresponding deflection for each cycle
in all the four beams of beam – column joint without slab
(BCJ) and beam – column joint with slab (BCJS) specimens
are given in Table 9 and Table 10. The maximum Load
carrying capacity of BCJ was 20 kN but in BCJS it was 55
kN. Load Vs No.of cycle is also shown in Fig.9 for BCJ and
Fig. 14 for BCJS specimen. The deflection of BCJ was
maximum in 4th
cycle at but it was maximum only at 11th
cycle in BCJS. It indicated that the Beam Column Joint with
Slab (BCJS) showed better results in Load carrying capacity
and in resisting the defection than the Beam Column without
Slab (BCJ). Load Vs Deflection curve of all the Beams of
BCJ are shown in Fig. 10 to 13 and Load Vs Deflection
curve of all the Beams of BCJS are shown in Fig. 15 to 18.

6.3 Crack Patterns
In the beam-column joint without slab specimen(BCJ) , the
cracks developed in the compression and tension side of
beam during loading and the bond between concrete and
reinforcement were reduced consequently. The first crack
occurred near the beam-column junction at 10 kN and
further increase in loading, made the cracks propagated and
the initial cracks started widening. Ultimate crack developed
at beam column joint at 20kN load. Spalling of concrete is
also occurred.Crack pattern is shown in the Fig. 21.
Fig. 21 Crack pattern of Beam-Column joint (BCJ)
specimen
In Beam – Column joint with slab specimen(BCJS) , the
initial cracks were observed at 20 KN on the surface of the
slab on further loading this crack was propagated and found
running towards beam. Ultimate crack developed at beam
column joint at 55 kN load. The deflected shape of the BCJS
specimen is given in the Fig. 22.

6.4 Ductility Factor
Ductility is an important characteristic of any structural
element. It was described as the capacity of a structural
element to undergo deformation beyond yield without losing
much of its strength. Ductility has generally been measured
by a ratio called ductility factor. It is usually expressed as a
ratio of deflection (∆) at ultimate stage to the corresponding
property at yield as shown below
Displacement ductility factor µ∆ = ∆u / ∆y
Where ∆u – Ultimate displacement and ∆y – Yield
displacement
From the experiment it was observed that the Ductility
factor of BCJS specimen is more when compared to BCJ
specimen. The values of displacement ductility factors for
BCJ and BCJS are listed in Table 11 and Table 12

7. SUMMARY
An experimental investigation was carried out on BCJ and
BCJS specimen under cyclic loading. The Results of the
experimental study on BCJ specimen and BCJS specimen
were analyzed and compared to reach the concluding points.
In BCJS specimen, it is obviously noticeable that the yield
load carrying capacity was 2 times more than that of the
BCJ specimen and also the ultimate load carrying capacity
was 2.75 times more than that of the BCJ specimen. It is
also clear that in the BCJS specimen, the energy dissipation
capacity of North beam were observed as 3.85 times more
than that of the BCJ specimen.
Noticing the crack pattern in the BCJS and BCJ, a
significant difference was observed. In BCJS first crack was
observed at the top of slab and it propagated towards the
beam, but in BCJ specimen first crack was observed at
Beam – Column joint itself and it widened for further
loading. On finding the different facts of the ductility factor
of North beam in BCJS was increased by 1.83 times than
that of BCJ specimen.
8. CONCLUSIONS
Referring the existing pattern, Indian standard for
earthquake resistant design of structures IS 1893 and Indian
standard for ductile detailing of reinforced concrete
structures IS 13920 do not have any provisions for Beam
Column Joint with Slab. So it is hereby recommended that
the strength of slab plays an important role in beam column
joint and it should be considered and the corresponding
details have to be included in these Indian standards.

Flexural behaviour of interior r.c.beam column joint with and without slab under cyclic loading

  • 1. IJRET: International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology eISSN: 2319-1163 | pISSN: 2321-7308 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Volume: 03 Issue: 06 | Jun-2014, Available @ http://www.ijret.org 558 FLEXURAL BEHAVIOUR OF INTERIOR R.C.BEAM COLUMN JOINT WITH AND WITHOUT SLAB UNDER CYCLIC LOADING Revathi.R1 , Srisanthi .V.G2 1 Research Scholar, Department of civil engineering, Coimbatore Institute of Technology, Coimbatore– 641 014, Tamil Nadu, India 2 Associate Professor, Department of civil engineering, Coimbatore Institute of Technology, Coimbatore – 641 014, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract The behavior of reinforced concrete moment resisting frame structures in recent earthquakes all over the world has highlighted the consequences of poor performance of beam column joints. Beam column joints in a reinforced concrete moment resisting frame are crucial zones for the transfer of loads effectively between the connecting elements (i.e. beams and columns) in the structure. In 1976, the design of beam column joint is first recommended and subsequently revision is carried out in the year 1985. Design specifications only for the beam column joints are given in IS 13920:1993. There is no provision for the type of column joint whether it be Edge column, Corner column or Interior column. Effect of slab is also not considered in this code. Hence a study and investigation is required on the beam-column joint with slab to suggest improvement in reinforcement detailing based on influence of slab. Two scaled specimens, one Interior Beam-Column joint with slab (BCJS) and another Interior Beam- Column joint without slab (BCJ) were made. Tests were carried out in structural laboratory and the results are discussed here. Keywords: Column joint with slab( BCJS), Beam – Column joint without slab (BCJ), Moment resisting frame, Interior joint, Energy dissipation, Ductility factor. --------------------------------------------------------------------***------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. INTRODUCTION In the analysis of reinforced concrete moment resisting frames, the joints are generally assumed as rigid. In Indian practice, the joint is usually neglected for specific design with attention being restricted to provision of sufficient anchorage for beam longitudinal reinforcement. This may be acceptable when the frame is not subjected to earthquake loads. There have been many catastrophic failures reported in the past 50 earthquakes, in particular with Turkey and Taiwan earthquakes occurred in 1999, which have been attributed to beam column joints. The poor design practice of beam column joints is compounded by the high demand imposed by the adjoining flexural members (beams and columns) in the event of mobilizing their inelastic capacities to dissipate seismic energy. Unsafe design and detailing within the joint region jeopardize the entire structure, even if other structural members conform to the design requirements. Since past three decades, extensive research has been carried out on studying the behavior of joints under seismic conditions through experimental and analytical studies. Various international codes of practices have been undergoing periodic revisions to incorporate the research findings into practice. 2. LITERATURE REVIEW Hikmat E.Zerbe et al (1990) studied the seismic response of connections in two bay RC frame subassemblies with a floor. It was found that the presence of slab increases the shear strength in the joints and was not affected by the energy dissipation capacity in continues subassembly. Lateral load resistance increased by as much as 30 percent at 3 percent lateral drift and degradation of stiffness. Based on the results, the suggestion is made to include the effect of a floor slab in the procedure for designing beam-column connections. Gilson N.Guimaraes et al (1992) studied the evaluation of joint-shear provisions for interior beam- column slab connections using high-strength materials of four interior beam column slab connections constructed with combinations of normal and high strength and reinforcement are presented and existing joint shear provisions are evaluated for use in designs of connections constructed with high strength materials. Devados Menon et al (2007) conducted a detailed investigation of the design of RC beam- column joints. In this study three international code of practice like ACI 318M-02, NZ 3101:1995, pr EN1998-1 were followed for designing the RC beam-column joints under seismic load. The performance specimens which had details as per various codes were compared. They concluded that there is need to revise the code IS13920:1993. This had become inadequate in minimum column width, column/beam flexural strength ratio, and nominal shear strength of beam column joints and effective shear area of joint. Burcu B.Canbolat et al (2008) conducted an experimental investigation on seismic behaviour of eccentric reinforced concrete beam–column-slab connections. The study focused on the effect of eccentricity of spandrel beams with respect to the column. Specimens included a floor slab and transverse beam to evaluate the effect of slab participation. Test results indicated that the floor system significantly reduced the negative influence of eccentricity and observed that damage was reduced. The

This was due to the participation of a larger area of the joint region in the resisting shear, which indicates that “recommendations for design of beam column connections in monolithic reinforced concrete structures ( ACI 352R-02) for effective joint width are conservative”. Bindu.K.R et al (2008) conducted a detailed investigation on the performance of exterior beam column joints with cross- inclined bars under Seismic loading. They investigated the effect of inclined bars at the joint region. Four exterior beam column joint were cast and tested under cyclic load. The specimens which had joint reinforcement as per code IS 13920:1993 with inclined bars and the specimens without inclined bars were tested. They concluded that the specimen with inclined bars showed more ductility and energy absorption capacity than specimen without inclined bars. 3.

Splitting tensile strength tests were carried out on cylinder specimens of size 150 mm diameter and 300 mm length at the age of 28 days curing, using compression testing machine of 2000 kN capacity. The load was applied gradually till the specimens split and readings were noted. The test set up for the splitting tensile strength on the cylinder specimen is shown in Fig. 2.Test result was given in the table 7. The splitting tensile strength has been calculated using the following formula. ft= 2P / DL Where ft – Splitting tensile strength of the specimen in Mpa P – Maximum load in N applied to the specimen D – Measured diameter of the specimen in mm, and L – Measured length of the specimen in mm Fig. 2 Split Tensile Test Table 7 Split Tensile Strength of Cylinder at 28 Days S.No Name of the Specimen Split tensile Strength in N/mm2 1 Beam column joint without slab 2.829 2 Beam column joint with slab 3.112 3.9 Flexural Strength Test Beam specimens of size 10 x10 x50 cm were cast and tested as shown in Fig. 3 to determine the flexural strength of concrete at the age of 28th days. The bearing surfaces of the supporting and loading rollers are wiped clean, and any loose sand or other material removed from the surfaces of the specimen where they are to make contact with the rollers. The specimen is then placed in the machine in such a manner that the load is applied to the uppermost surface as cast in the mould, along two lines spaced 13.3 cm apart. The axis of the specimen is carefully aligned with the axis of the loading device. The load is applied without shock and increasing continuously at a rate such that the extreme fibre stress increases at approximately 0.7kg/sq.cm/min that is at a rate of 180kg/min. The load is increased until the specimen fails, and the maximum load applied to the specimen during the test is recorded. The flexural strength of the specimen is expressed as the modulus of rupture fb and the results are given in table 8. Fb= PL / bd2 Where b – measured width in cm of the specimen d – measured width in cm of the specimen P – maximum load in kg applied to the specimen, and L – Measured length of the specimen in mm Fig. 3 Tensile Strength of Concrete

ANALYSIS OF FRAME A four storey two bay frames including 1.5 m foundation depth multistorey reinforced concrete building falling under the seismic Zone – III has been analyzed using STADD.pro. The specimens were designed for seismic load according to IS 1893(Part I): 2002 & IS 13920: 1993. Based on the critical combination of load, the value for bending moment, shear force and axial forces were taken for the design of Beam - Column joint with slab (BCJS) and Beam – Column joint without slab (BCJ). The maximum moment occurred at the ground floor level. Ground floor interior joint is considered for the experimental work. The three dimensional view of the building taken for analysis is shown in Fig.4 and elevation is shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 4 Three Dimensional View of the Building Fig. 5 Elevation of Frame 5. SPECIMEN Beam – Column joint specimen consisted of four numbers of beam (North, South, East and West) and two numbers of column (Top and Bottom).These are monolithically connected at the joint. Another specimen was made as said above with 40mm thick slab. Based on the end condition of building the moment coefficient was calculated. Detailing of reinforcements are based on the code Sp 34. Following Fig. 6 shows the detail of reinforcements. It was difficult to make the test specimens to the original scale to suit the loading arrangement facilities. Hence the test specimens were reduced to one fourth scale .The cross section of the reduced beam was 100 mm×100 mm and the cross section of the reduced column was 100 mm×100 mm. 4 numbers of 10 mm ø bars were used as main bars in the column. Transverse reinforcement in the column with 6mm ø bars at a spacing of 40mm c/c up to 120 mm from face of joint and 60mm c/c for middle portion of 180mm and then spacing of 40mm c/c for the remaining length. 2 numbers of 8 mm diameter bars as tension reinforcement and 2 numbers of 8 mm diameter bars as compression reinforcement were used for all beams and stirrups of 6mm ø bars at a spacing of 50mm c/c up to 150 mm from face of joint and 150mm c/c for middle portion of 300mm and then spacing of 50mm c/c for the remaining length were used .The thickness of the slab was 40 mm. Fig. 6 Reinforcement Details of Beam-Column Joint Specimen as per the code IS 13920:1993. The reinforced concrete Beam-Column joint with slab and Beam-Column joint without slab specimens were cast and cured for 28 days. The specimens were placed in the reaction frame and tested under cyclic loading in the structural laboratory. The column ends were provided by pinned connections. On one end of the column, an axial load of 50 kN was applied by using a hydraulic jack of 500 kN capacity. Cyclic load was applied at the free end of all the beams by using a hydraulic jack through load cell. Linear Variable Differential Transducers (LVDTs) were placed on the extreme edge of the all beams to show the deflection that occurred at the point of application of load on the beam. The following Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 show the details of the BCJ and BCJS specimens respectively.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS 6.1 Load Vs Deflection Maximum load and corresponding deflection for each cycle in all the four beams of beam – column joint without slab (BCJ) and beam – column joint with slab (BCJS) specimens are given in Table 9 and Table 10. The maximum Load carrying capacity of BCJ was 20 kN but in BCJS it was 55 kN. Load Vs No.of cycle is also shown in Fig.9 for BCJ and Fig. 14 for BCJS specimen. The deflection of BCJ was maximum in 4th cycle at but it was maximum only at 11th cycle in BCJS. It indicated that the Beam Column Joint with Slab (BCJS) showed better results in Load carrying capacity and in resisting the defection than the Beam Column without Slab (BCJ). Load Vs Deflection curve of all the Beams of BCJ are shown in Fig. 10 to 13 and Load Vs Deflection curve of all the Beams of BCJS are shown in Fig. 15 to 18.

The first crack occurred near the beam-column junction at 10 kN and further increase in loading, made the cracks propagated and the initial cracks started widening. Ultimate crack developed at beam column joint at 20kN load. Spalling of concrete is also occurred.Crack pattern is shown in the Fig. 21. Fig. 21 Crack pattern of Beam-Column joint (BCJ) specimen In Beam – Column joint with slab specimen(BCJS) , the initial cracks were observed at 20 KN on the surface of the slab on further loading this crack was propagated and found running towards beam. Ultimate crack developed at beam column joint at 55 kN load. The deflected shape of the BCJS specimen is given in the Fig. 22. Fig. 22 Crack pattern of Beam-Column joint (BCJ) specimen 6.4 Ductility Factor Ductility is an important characteristic of any structural element. It was described as the capacity of a structural element to undergo deformation beyond yield without losing much of its strength. Ductility has generally been measured by a ratio called ductility factor. It is usually expressed as a ratio of deflection (∆) at ultimate stage to the corresponding property at yield as shown below Displacement ductility factor µ∆ = ∆u / ∆y Where ∆u – Ultimate displacement and ∆y – Yield displacement From the experiment it was observed that the Ductility factor of BCJS specimen is more when compared to BCJ specimen. The values of displacement ductility factors for BCJ and BCJS are listed in Table 11 and Table 12 Table 11 Ductility Factor of Beam Column Joint Without Slab (BCJ) Sl.No Beam Direction Deflection (mm) At Yield ∆y At Ultimate ∆u Ductility Factor µ∆=( ∆u/∆y) 1 North 8.2 21.2 2.58 2 South 10.5 22.8 2.17 3 East 7.6 21.0 2.76 4 West 9.8 21.5 2.19 0 100 200 300 400 500 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 CumulativeEnergydissipationin kNmm No of cycle Energy dissipation curve for North beam

SUMMARY An experimental investigation was carried out on BCJ and BCJS specimen under cyclic loading. The Results of the experimental study on BCJ specimen and BCJS specimen were analyzed and compared to reach the concluding points. In BCJS specimen, it is obviously noticeable that the yield load carrying capacity was 2 times more than that of the BCJ specimen and also the ultimate load carrying capacity was 2.75 times more than that of the BCJ specimen. It is also clear that in the BCJS specimen, the energy dissipation capacity of North beam were observed as 3.85 times more than that of the BCJ specimen. Noticing the crack pattern in the BCJS and BCJ, a significant difference was observed. In BCJS first crack was observed at the top of slab and it propagated towards the beam, but in BCJ specimen first crack was observed at Beam – Column joint itself and it widened for further loading. On finding the different facts of the ductility factor of North beam in BCJS was increased by 1.83 times than that of BCJ specimen. 8. CONCLUSIONS Referring the existing pattern, Indian standard for earthquake resistant design of structures IS 1893 and Indian standard for ductile detailing of reinforced concrete structures IS 13920 do not have any provisions for Beam Column Joint with Slab. So it is hereby recommended that the strength of slab plays an important role in beam column joint and it should be considered and the corresponding details have to be included in these Indian standards.
