The fatigue behavior of the negative moment region of continuous steel–concrete composite beams under Canadian temperature conditions was studied. Tests were conducted on three 26 ft 0 in. (7.92 m) long beams, continuous over a central support, and on 11 conventional push-out specimens. These were supplemented by a theoretical study of the internal forces in the beams using an iterative method of analysis.The close agreement between measured and theoretical strains and deflections indicated that good interaction was achieved throughout the length of the beams. The beams sustained 500 000 cycles of loading with no serious deterioration of composite action. The pattern of stud failures was consistent from beam to beam and reflected closely the calculated distribution of horizontal shear force at the steel–concrete interface. Stud shear connectors in the negative moment region where the slab had cracked in tension were found to be slightly less effective than studs in the positive bending moment regions.Neither the detailed study of individual connectors in the beams nor the results of the push-out tests show evidence of a reduction in the fatigue life of studs at −20 °F (−29 °C) relative to room temperature. The beams also exhibited no significant difference in their overall performance at these two temperatures.

Push Out

Push-out tests (POTs) have been widely exploited as an alternative to the more expensive full-scale bending tests to characterize the behaviour of shear connections in steel-concrete composite beams. In these tests, two concrete slabs are typically attached to a steel section with the connectors under investigation, which are then subjected to direct shear. The results allow quantifying the relationship between applied load and displacements at the steel-concrete interface. Since this relationship is highly influenced by the boundary conditions of POT samples, different experimental setups have been used, where the slabs are either restricted or free to slide horizontally, as researchers have tried to reduce any discrepancy between POT and full-scale composite beam testing. Based on a critical review of various POT configurations presented in the dedicated literature, this paper presents an efficient one-sided POT (OSPOT) method. While OSPOT and POT specimens are similar, in the proposed OPSPOT setup only one of the two slabs is directly loaded in each test, and the slab is free to move vertically. Thus, two results can be obtained from one specimen, i.e. one from each slab. A series of POTs and OSPOTs have been conducted to investigate the behaviour and the shear resistance of headed stud connectors through the two methods of testing. The results of this study than were compared with those of different POTs setups conducted by other researchers. The new OSPOT results show in general an excellent agreement with the analytical predictions offered by both British and European standards, as well as the estimated shear resistance proposed other researchers in the literature. These findings suggest that the proposed one-sided setup could be used as an efficient and economical option for conducting the POT, as it has the potential not only to double the number of results, but also to simplify the fabrication of the samples, which is important in any large experimental campaign, and to allow testing with limited capacity of the actuator.

Based on the theoretical analysis and testing results, some key issues in design of outer-plated steel-concrete continuous composite beams are discussed. The influence of the form of steel beam upper flange on the behavior of composite beam is analyzed. The requirements about longitudinal reinforcement strength in the concrete flange of the negative moment region are given. It is suggested that the moment-shear interaction should be neglected when calculating the flexural capacity of outer-plated steel-concrete composite beams under negative bending moment. The behavior of longitudinal shear resistance at the interface between the concrete flange and web of composite beam is studied, and the related calculating formula is put forward based on the structural features of the composite beam.

ABSTRACT: The present work aims to compare the structural behavior of steel-concrete composite-section beams for three types of shear connectors made of U hot rolled section and cold-formed sections of U and L. Experimental tests were performed with the three types of connectors associated with I section laminated steel beams and reinforced concrete slabs. For each type of connector, three push-out tests were performed, as well as six simple supported beam tests to evaluate the positive bending moment region. The results indicated that the direct shear behavior among the different types of connectors presents significant differences, however they do not significantly influence the average flexural strength of the composite beams. These, however, present considerable differences in deflections and deformations due to the stiffness differences of the connectors.

This research presents an experimental program to study the effect of using angle shear connectors instead of the headed stud on the flexural behavior of composite beams under negative bending moment (NBM). Both the angle and headed stud shear connectors used in this study have the same cross-sectional area. Five composite beams were casted and tested using three-point load configuration to ensure the NBM effect. Different parameters were included in this study such as the type of shear connector, bond interaction (partial and complete bond interaction) and arrangement of angle shear connectors. Two proposals method were suggested for angle setting in this study to investigate the structural behavior of the composite section. It has been found that, in the case of single angle shear connectors, the ultimate strength decreased by 4.12% compared with samples with the headed stud shear connectors. The direction of the angle setting has been shown to affect the flexural behavior of the composite section.

Push Out

Composite structures of concrete slabs and steel beams require shear connectors to transfer shear force between steel beams and concrete slabs. The strength of stud shear connector specified on SNI 03-1729-2013 only considers the effect of stud diameter, however the length of a stud may influence its behavior and strength. This research observes the effects of length and diameter (𝓁/𝒹) of shear connectors on the strength. This research was conducted using the push out method explain in AS-4347- Part I. The test specimens observed in this research were concrete and steel composites, composing IWF 350x175x11x14 mm and concrete blocks of size 450x225x160 mm. The studs were made of steel reinforcements with diameter (𝒹) of 10, 16 and 22 mm, were welded on IWF with 5 mm weld thickness. The length of studs for each stud diameter were 4d, 5d, and 6d. The results indicate that the increase in stud diameter will increase the load capacity of stud. The length of studs effect its load capacity. A slim stud experiences large bending moment at the base of the shear connector. The results show that the highest value of load capacity is measured at specimens with 𝓁/𝒹 ratio of 5.

This paper summarizes the results of tests performed on 48 push-out specimens to investigate the feasibility of using perfobond rib type shear connectors in composite beams with ribbed metal decks placed parallel to the steel beams. The perfobond rib shear connector is a flat steel plate containing a number of holes. The results indicate that perfobond rib connectors can be effectively used in composite beams with ribbed metal decks placed parallel to the steel beams. An appreciable improvement in performance was observed in test specimens when additional reinforcing bars were passed through the perfobond rib holes. Shank shear was the principal mode of failure in specimens with headed studs. In specimens with perfobond rib, failure was triggered by the longitudinal splitting of the concrete slab, followed by the crushing of concrete in front of the perfobond rib. Key words: composite beam, shear connector, perfobond rib, headed stud, push-out test, metal deck.

Based on the test data of twelve push-out specimens with different holes filling different materials,the paper compared and analyzed the capacity and the corresponding slip value of the stud shear connector. The results show that, as to the two different kinds of holes shape ,the strength of the stud shear connectors of square push-out specimens was huger than that of circular specimens with the same condition; the strength of stud shear connectors in steel-concrete composite structure was decided by the strength of concrete surrounding the shear in the holes, with increasing concrete strength, the strength of stud shear connectors improved greatly; The outputs of this study are very useful for further understanding of the characteristics of the stud,it is also expected that the results presented in this paper should be valuable for the design of the composite beams.
