Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures are often vulnerable to seismic events. The reports of damage observed pointed out the key importance of beam-to-column joints on the global performance of RC frames. Several theoretical and analytical formulations have been proposed for evaluating the shear strength of beam-to-column joints. The present work deals with the formulations for evaluating the shear strength of exterior and interior connections currently available in both the scientific literature and the main seismic codes. The comparison between the experimental results collected in...
