The document summarizes research on the shear capacity of concrete slabs and strips loaded close to supports. Three key findings are: 1) The shear span to depth ratio has a smaller influence on shear capacity in slabs compared to beams due to three-dimensional load spreading in slabs. 2) Increasing the size of the loading plate increases shear capacity more for wider slabs, as it allows for larger surface area to develop three-dimensional stress distributions. 3) Existing code design methods do not fully capture the different shear behavior in slabs compared to beams. The research recommends modifying factors for concentrated loads near supports in codes for evaluating existing solid slab bridges.
