Testing and Numerical Modelling of Steel-Concrete-Steel with Stud Bolts Connectors Subject to Push-Out Loading [PDF]
Steel-concrete-steel (SCS) sandwich panels are composed of two steel plates with low thicknesses and high densities and strengths and one thick layer between both plates with low strength and density known as core that is composed of concrete.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON SHEAR PERFORMANCE OF SHEAR-RING CONNECTOR
A composite member that thin steel plate was sandwiched between two cedar-glulam-timbers using shear-ring connectors and bolts was developed and equations for estimating the strength and buckling mode of the member were proposed. In this paper, shear test results of shear-ring connector are reported because the shear stiffness of the shear-ring ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting
