Openings in concrete floor slab systems can have a significant effect on one-way and two-way shear strength of the slab. This effect is illustrated in this example for a concrete flat plate floor system. In this example, a hypothetical floor opening is placed next to a column to simulate an opening needed for cable tray system in a data center building housing server racks. To demonstrate the opening effects, one-way and two-way shear checks are conducted for two cases: slab without openings, and slab with opening.

Reinforced concrete core walls are utilized in building framed with concrete as well as other framing materials such as steel and wood. Used in conjunction with concrete shear walls, core walls house elevator banks, stair cases, MEP chases, and many other service equipment and spaces. Along with important functions such as isolating equipment and elevator vibration and noise reduction, core wall systems regularly double as a building lateral load resistance system. In multi-story concrete, steel, and wood buildings, reinforced concrete cores are subject to significant axial loads coupled with simultaneous bending moments about two orthogonal axes (biaxial bending). The strength calculations of a typical core wall are detailed in this example.
