There are generally four modes of failure for Composite Slabs – Longitudinal shear (shear bond) failure, Vertical shear failure, Flexural failure and Punching shear failure. Of the four modes, longitudinal failure is considered to be the governing criteria in the design of composite slabs as it yiel...
