As a competitive alternative for accelerated bridge construction (ABC), prefabricated steel–
ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) composite beams containing high-strength friction …

Reducing carbon emissions in the construction sector is essential in a period of climate
emergency. Disassembly and reuse of structural members are considered to reduce the …

Bridge construction is one of the cores of traffic infrastructure construction. To better develop
relevant bridge science, this paper introduces the main research progress in China and …

Although cold-formed steel (CFS) members have been widely used in structures, their
application is limited due to the buckling and instability of these members. To enhance their …

The use of concrete slab in cold-formed steel (CFS) beams can not only increase the
ultimate resistance, but also can prevent their lateral buckling. Since the formation of …

Compared to traditional shear keys, bolted shear connections adopted in steel-concrete
composite beams or bridges provide the advantages of improved construction efficiency and …

Abstract The Right-Angle Truss connector is a newly developed shear connector that
features efficient structural behavior and low manufacturing and installation cost. However …

The concurrent use of concrete slab, and cold-formed steel section as a composite beam
improves strength and stiffness, thus preventing local and lateral buckling of the beam. The …

Experimental and theoretical calculation approaches were used to explore the residual
mechanical properties of steel–concrete composite beams with Perfobond rib shear (PBL) …

Four prefabricated steel–concrete composite beams (PSCCBs) with grouped bolt shear
connectors were designed and tested to investigate their flexural performance under …
