Abstract

<p> The local effects of concentrated longitudinal shear forces should be appropriately examined in composite truss beams with the welded headed studs, located at the steel-concrete interface. Based on finite element modelling, new approaches are investigated theoretically. The experiment results from push-out testing and bending test of full-scale composite truss beams given in the paper showed rather good agreement between the test and the theory. Several effects on shear connection behaviour are also studied.</p>
