Behavior of slab–column connections with partially debonded reinforcement under lateral loading
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In a flat plate structure, slab–column connections must possess sufficient drift capacity to survive the lateral deformation resulting from wind or earthquake. Partial debonding of the flexural reinforcement may be a means of increasing drift capacity of a slab–column structure. This article summarizes cyclic loading tests conducted on two full-scale interior slab–column connections, one with and one without partially debonded reinforcement. Each test specimen consisted of a 4.2 m square slab with a 355 mm square column protruding 1.5 m above and below the slab. The slab thickness was 152 mm. The specimen with partially debonded reinforcement exhibited more lateral drift capacity (4.5%) than did the specimen with fully bonded reinforcement (3.5%). The lateral load capacity of the debonded specimen was approximately 20% greater than that of the bonded control specimen. With partial debonding of the flexural reinforcement, cyclic load appeared to produce less damage to the connection in the vicinity of the slab–column joint.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
