Shear resistance of longitudinal shear connection with groups of headed studs

Punching shear capacity of reinforced concrete slabs with headed shear studs

Evaluation of the Efficiency of Shear Studs for Punching Shear Resistance of Slab-Column Connections

Effect of type and distribution of shear studs on the behavior of composite steel-concrete shear walls

In this research in-plane shear Behavior of composite steel-concrete shear walls was investigated considering the Effects of steel plates thickness, spaces between shear studs, shape and type of shear studs and existing of minimum reinforcement in wall section. Several finite element models were analyzed and Numerical results of two models were taken under verification with existent experimenta...

Push-out tests on shear studs in high strength concrete

A lot of push-out tests of shear studs embedded in normal strength concrete were conducted. So current design code methods of the shear studs are based on the test results of studs embedded in normal strength concrete. It also appeared that the strength of connector and the concrete strength are the main factors affecting the behavior of shear connections. But push-out test data of studs embedd...

Shear Resistance of Glulam Beams with Cracks

A reduction of the shear resistance was introduced with the crack factor kcr in Eurocode 5. The factor 0.67 corresponds to cracks that have a depth of 1/3 of the beam width, which rarely occurs under normal conditions. The glulam industry in Sweden has not observed any problems or shear failures due to cracks with previously used shear values. Hence the design requirements do not seem reasonabl...
