An experimental study according to EC4 on deconstructable steel-concrete composite
bolted shear connectors is carried out to investigate the effect of various bolt size, concrete …

The construction industry in Europe consumes over 70,000 million tonnes of a wide range of
materials each year, and generates over 250 million tonnes of constructional waste. Much 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 …

The high-strength bolt shear connector in prefabricated concrete slab has advantages in
applications as it reduces time during the construction of steel-concrete composite building …

Shear connectors are important in composite steel-concrete beams. This work presents a
new connector, named truss-type shear connector. This connector is an alternative to …

In civil engineering, composite construction has become increasingly widespread due to the
improvement of mechanical properties it provides. Recently, research on the development of …

An experimental study of deconstructable steel-concrete shear connectors using bolts under
a low-cycle high-amplitude loading protocol is undertaken to investigate the effect of the …

This paper presents the experimental and numerical investigations of an innovative
composite floor system with deconstructability. In this system, a composite slab formed with …

This paper investigates the feasibility of utilising blind bolts as shear connectors to develop
demountable steel–concrete beams. The flexural behaviour of composite beams with two …

Bolted connectors could be an alternative to replace conventional welded headed studs
between steel girders and concrete slabs, which may benefit prefabricated construction and …
