4. Note
• The design against punching shear failure is based on the rules of ACI 318-14.
• This calculation is bases on product specific properties of DECON® Studrails®. Changes, even to similar
products, are only possible with new calculations.
• All data have to be checked with the given edge boundaries and the feasibility. DECON assumes no
liability for the input data of the user.
