Modern environmental protection standards have a direct impact on the construction and
shaping of public space. Designers are increasingly reaching for materials produced via …

This paper presents an assessment and quantification of the environmental impacts arising
from different steel-concrete composite floor systems. In particular, a demountable …

In the last few decades, the application of lightweight cold-formed composite steel–concrete
structural systems has constantly been increasing within the field of structural engineering …

In the conventional steel-concrete composite beams, the composite action is achieved by
welded stud connectors which are encased into the cast-in-place concrete slab. This makes …

In this paper, the short-term behaviour of innovative aluminium–timber composite beams
was investigated. Laminated veneer lumber panels were attached to aluminium beams with …

The performance of tapered iron bolt (TIB) shear connectors and their feasibility to be used
in demountable composite beams are investigated in this study. The typical TIB shear …

Stainless steel-concrete composite beam has been regarded as a new application that is
widely applied in offshore bridges and high-rise buildings and is attracting increasing …

Many bolted connectors were proposed for use in steel-concrete composite structures over
the past few decades. This is because using bolted connectors could make the assembly …

Steel–concrete composite beams joined by shear connectors are extensively used in
building and bridge engineering owing to their favourable structural performance, ease of …

Growing concerns regarding environmental preservation and the fact that the construction
industry is one of the sectors with the highest rates of resource consumption and waste …
