Column Punching Shear Checks

Summary

ProtaStructure’s punching shear check is an interactive design tool. You need to use it carefully on one column, or a group of the similar column(s) at a time to review/establish the correct design settings. Having done so rechecking can be carried out in a more automatic fashion.

In this design guide, we will show what this check can do for you, and illustrate the scope & limitations of which you need to be aware.
