Product Description
Product Overview
This SI Metric Excel workbook verifies two-way reinforced concrete flat slabs and mat foundations against punching shear under concentric axial shear and biaxial unbalanced moments in accordance with ACI 318M-25. It covers interior, edge, and corner column locations, perimeter reductions for adjacent slab openings, size-effect modification (λs), and closed stirrup shear reinforcement detailing.
Units: SI Metric (mm, kN, MPa)
File: 19-Slab Punching Shear Design Based on ACI 318M-25.xlsx
Design Checks & Calculation Scope
Calculates effective critical shear perimeter bo at d/2 from interior (4-sided), edge (3-sided), and corner (2-sided) columns, deducting ineffective segments projected by slab openings (Sec. 22.6.4).
Determines eccentric shear transfer fractions γv1, γv2 and polar section moduli Jc/c around both principal slab axes to evaluate peak factored shear stress vu (Sec. 8.4.4.2.3).
Applies ACI 318M-25 size-effect factor λs = min(1.0, √(2 / (1 + 0.004 d))) directly to concrete punching capacity φvc (φ = 0.75) as well as to stirrup shear calculations and outer perimeter extension distance.
Checks maximum stirrup stress limit vs,max = 0.50 √(f’c) − vc, required stirrup leg spacing (s ≤ d/2), and distance from the column face where concrete alone resists punching stress.

Building Code Standards & Regional Applicability
Strength reduction factors (φ), capacity equations, and reinforcement detailing limits follow ACI 318-25 / ACI 318M-25 and ASCE/SEI 7-22. Engineers working under national codes derived directly from ACI 318 can adjust concrete strength, steel yield grade, load factors, and bar sizes directly in the input cells:
| Region / Country | Applicable National Standard | Engineering Application |
|---|---|---|
| United States & Territories | IBC 2024 / ACI 318-25 / ASCE 7-22 | Matches current IBC / ACI 318-25 building code provisions in US customary units (kips, in, ksi). |
| Saudi Arabia & GCC | SBC 304 (Saudi Building Code) | SBC 304 adopts ACI 318 strength reduction factors (φ) and detailing provisions directly for EPC and commercial submittals. |
| Philippines | NSCP 2015 (ACI 318 based) | Uses equivalent strength design, shear-friction, and seismic detailing provisions; metric or customary bar inputs supported. |
| Indonesia | SNI 2847:2019 / SNI 1726:2019 | SNI 2847 adopts ACI 318 provisions with compatible flexural, shear, deep-beam, and special wall checks. |
| Colombia & Latin America | NSR-10 / NEC-15 / NTC-C | Follows the ACI 318 framework for seismic confinement, coupling beams, shear walls, and spread foundations. |
| Canada & International | CSA A23.3 / International Projects | Useful as an ACI 318-25 design check on international industrial, oil & gas, and plant foundations. |
Spreadsheet Notes & Engineer Responsibility
- Editable Open Formulas: All worksheets use native Excel formulas without VBA macros or password-locked sheets.
- Worked Example Included: Pre-populated sample inputs and pass/fail checks allow you to review the calculation flow immediately before entering project loads.
- Professional Responsibility: This spreadsheet is an engineering design aid. Input loads, geotechnical parameters, site seismic criteria, reinforcement detailing, and final code compliance remain the responsibility of the Engineer of Record.
