This section includes new requirements for slab-column frames that are not part of the seismic-force-resisting system.
Slab-column frames have shown repeatedly their vulnerability under seismic demands. This vulnerability is specially associated with the punching shear strength of the slab-column joint.
The new procedure in ACI 318-08 (Section 21.13.6) indicates when shear reinforcement must be provided in the slab-column joint as a function of the story drift.
