Finite element modelling of shear connection for steel-concrete composite girders
… models to trace the behaviour of headed stud shear connectors in composite girders with solid slabs and precast hollow core slabs. The finite element package ABAQUS was used to conduct the analysis. Push-off tests with both types of slabs were simulated taking into consideration all material …

Experimental Verification of a New Single Plate Shear Connection Design Model
Single plate shear connections are designed to have sufficient strength to resist the shear force and moment transferred from the beam. The connections must also provide sufficient ductility to allow the beam end to rotate freely. In the United States the current recommended design method is found …

Screw-Fastened Cold-Formed Steel-to-Steel Shear Connection Behavior and Models
… of single-fastened cold-formed steel-to-steel shear connections. Predictions are validated through an experimental study considering ply configuration and a single Hex #10 -washer head fastener, centered in a 102 mm by 102 mm three boundary window. The fastener tilting angle is captured using …

Ultimate strength analysis of partially composite and fully composite open-web steel joists
… composite steel joists with various degrees of shear connection is investigated. The results of eight full-size composite joist tests, conducted as a portion of the study, are presented. Joist spans range from 24 ft. to 30 ft. and depths from 8 in. to 18 in. Six types of mechanical connectors …

Design and Behavior of Composite Steel-Concrete Flexural Members with a Focus on Shear Connectors
… members. The first part deals with a new type of shear connection in composite joists. Composite steel-concrete flexural members have increasingly become popular in design and construction of floor systems, structural frames, and bridges. A particularly popular system features composite trusses …

Experimental and analytical study of the shear transfer in composite shallow cellular floor beams
This research investigated the longitudinal shear transfer mechanism in composite shallow cellular floor beams. The shear transfer mechanism is different with the headed shear studs used in composite construction. The shear resisting properties and behaviour of the shear transfer mechanism has not …

Evaluation of long span composite joists
… spans, depths, slab depth, and amount of shear connection was varied. Analytical methods are presented to predict both the ultimate strength and the stiffness of the composite joist. A non-linear finite element model is presented to predict the behavior of the composite joist in the …

Behaviour of long span composite beams with precast hollow-core slabs
… slabs and the transfer of the horizontal shear forces between the steel beam and the concrete slab. The aim of the research is to investigate the performance of composite beams with the position of the neutral axis in the concrete and also establish the effective width. By varying the beam …

Fatigue and static behaviour of post-tensioned steel-concrete composite beams
… samples (steel beams, concrete flanges, and shear connectors), which enhanced the overall fatigue performance of the strengthened samples. However, the strengthened samples experienced longitudinal fatigue cracks in the concrete flanges because of PT while such cracks were not observed in the …

Investigation of the Effects of Spacing between Bolts in a Row in a Single-Shear Timber Connection Subjected to Reverse Cyclic Loading
… spacing between bolts in a multiple-bolt, single-shear connection subjected to natural hazard loading affects seven strength and serviceability parameters: maximum load, failure load, E.E.P. yield load, 5% offset load, elastic stiffness, E.E.P. energy, and ductility ratio. This research also …

Two novel techniques to study multiple bolted wood connection behavior
Two novel techniques, instrumented shear bolts and digital image correlation, were evaluated for studying multiple-bolted wood connection behavior. The instrumented shear bolts output an electronic signal proportional to the shear forces transmitted through the bolt in a double-shear connection …

Analysis of headless shear stud connections
… individual elements of the bridge deck to girder connection to see if the required strength could be achieved while making the connections easier to take apart. One of the main components in the bridge deck to girder system is the steel shear stud connection, which is used to create composite …

Double Angle Framing Connections Subjected to Shear and Tension
The double angle connection (sometimes referred to as a cleat connection) is one of the most commonly used simple shear connections, and many investigations have been conducted on this type of connection. However, most of these investigations have focused on either the strength or the …

Experimental Evaluation and Analytical Modeling of Shear Bond in Composite Slabs
… behavior of composite slabs are governed by the shear interaction between the concrete and the steel deck. The interaction property depends on several factors and it is not possible to express the relationship from a purely analytical basis. As such, analysis and design methods available today …
