Ten high-strength concrete slabs reinforced with a new type of steel fiber, double-hooked-end steel fibers, were tested under punching shear loads. The strength of the concrete fc′ varied from 80 to 100 MPa (11,600 to 14,500 psi). The fiber content Vf varied from 0 to 1.2%. Two different values of f...
