Thanks to the axial resisting contribution, inclined screw connections offer a mechanical
advantage over connections with purely transversely loaded fasteners. However, the strong …

This paper presents three types of assembled shear connectors consisting of a steel
component anchored to timber by screws and glued-in rods (GiRs) for timber-concrete …

This study investigated the structural performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT)-concrete
composite floor with inclined self-tapping screws bearing unidirectional tension-shear loads …

The mechanical performance of shear connectors has an important effect on the load
bearing capacity and the bending stiffness of timer-concrete composite (TCC) beams. Most …

In the construction of modern multi-storey mass timber structures, self-tapping screws are the
preferred fasteners. In order the maximize the strength and stiffness of self-tapping screw …

This paper describes experimental research into timber-concrete composite (TCC)
connections made with discrete perforated steel plates glued in timber with epoxy adhesive …

Abstract The Mass Timber Panel-Concrete (MTPC) composite floor systems are often
encountered in mass timber buildings. Such a floor system consists of a Mass Timber Panel …

This research proposes new types of shear connectors made of carbon fibre reinforced
polymer (CFRP) composites for effective stress transfer between the timber and concrete …

In this study, shearing tests on connections and bending tests on prefabricated timber–
concrete composite (PTCC) beams were performed to evaluate the feasibility of using …

In this paper, the use of low strength lightweight concrete in combination with glue-laminated
timber (TLCC) is studied. Six series of push-out tests were conducted to assess the …
