between the wires. The wires had 4.5 mm of diameter and steel
area of 1.59 cm²/m in two directions. Model 2 also had transverse
reinforcement which was located on both sides of the column,
comprising a total of 6 bars of 8 mm of diameter. These bars were
positioned 150 mm from the center of gravity of the reinforcement.
As already mentioned these bars were distributed over a range of
250 mm (Table 1).
In addition to the continuity reinforcement of the connection, the
concrete cover of the slab also had a steel mesh that overlapped
the negative reinforcement. This steel mesh had 100 mm spacing
