Shear Behavior Study on Timber-Concrete Composite Structures with Bolts

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
The key point of design for timber-concrete composite structure is to ensure the reliability of shear connectors. This study examined the mechanical properties of bolt-type connectors in timber-concrete composite structures theoretically and ...

Finite element formulation for free vibration of composite beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Investigations concerning the dynamic response of composite beams with partial interaction are scarce. Derivation of the differential equations describing the interaction between composite elements normally involves with the solution of high order system

Multi–scale modelling of timber–frame structures under seismic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper introduces a versatile hysteretic constitutive law, developed for various joints with steel fasteners commonly used in timber structures (nails, screws, staples, 3D connectors of bracket type, punched plates). Compared to previous

Structural Design and Mechanical Behavior Investigation of Steel–Concrete Composite Decks of Narrow-Width Steel Box Composite Bridge

open access: yesBuildings
Steel–concrete composite decks are commonly employed in narrow-width steel box composite girder bridges to augment their lateral spanning capabilities, while the concurrent omission of longitudinal stiffeners leads to a substantial reduction in the ...

Performance Evaluation of Different Types of Shear Connectors in Steel–Concrete Composite Construction

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2018
Shear connectors are designed in steel-concrete composite construction to transmit the longitudinal shear, to prevent separation of steel and concrete slabs, and also to increase the structural efficiency of the whole system.

Response of reciprocally supported advanced FRP composite jointed frames - Part 1: Experimental study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper reports on a new experimental study for the behaviour of reciprocally connected and supported Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) hollow square profiles axially loaded under several boundary conditions. The study aims to determine the ultimate load
