Abstract

This paper shows the results of an experimental investigation carried out on a connection element of steel and concrete composite structures, through double-sided push-out shear tests. The connection system was composed of embossed steel plates with welding. The test configuration follows the EC4 recommendations. The experimental study involves tests on stud with diameter of 16 mm, T connector produced from laminated steel profiles and Embossed steel plate connector. With these tests it is possible to characterize different types of connection and evaluate load and deformation capacity. Nine specimens were made and tested under shear forces. The mechanical and durability properties of steel concrete composite beam with embossed steel plate connector, stud connector and T flange connector were investigated for M30 grade concrete as per IS10262- 2009.
