Experimental and numerical investigations on steel‐concrete interaction of embedded corrugated web composite members

The application of trapezoidal corrugated plate as the web for girders, thanks to a number favorable features, modernizes manufacture steel-concrete composite and hybrid structures provides an alternative, competitive structure small, medium large span beams. However, traditional headed stud shear connectors on top flange can be considered obsolete in many ways. By embedding steel concrete slab, other types connections should used, behavior these kind are really promising. In fact, embedded itself functions connector, though additive used. To understand structural design connectors, first step is examination web. focus research presented this paper interaction webs with additional mechanical connectors. As steps comprehensive experimental program was completed Structural Laboratory Department Engineering BME. This overview 8 (test) 12 (FE model) specimens push-out test aim introduce influence parameters resistance deformation capacity through numerical investigations.
