Abstract:A ten steel-concrete composite beams subdivided into five groups formed from standard steel section (W4X13) connected to concrete slab are designed and constructed using three different types of mechanical shear connectors. A stud connector and regular circular hole perfobond connectors are used in addition to a newly suggested type of triangular hole perfobond connector. The beams are experimentally tested using two-point load beam test to investigate the effect of connector’s type on beam resistance at yield… Show more
