This paper presents an experimental study on the static behavior of large stud shear
connectors embedded in ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). Test parameters …

Abstract Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) offers innovative applications to concrete
structures based on enhanced mechanical properties. The use of local materials is …

This paper investigates flexural behavior of composite bridge decks composed of corrugated
steel deck and ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) slab connected via modified …

Composite dowels are known as powerful shear connectors in steel-concrete-composite
girders. More and more they are used in practice, especially for prefabricated composite …

In steel and concrete composite structures, an efficient type of open rib shear connector, the
so called composite dowel connector, can be used to transfer shear forces between the …

In this paper, corrugated steel-concrete composite bridge decks with perfobond ribs (PBL)
and modified clothoid (MCL) shape shear connectors have been experimentally studied. Six …

Investigations leading to an evaluation of the ultimate strength of a clothoid-shaped
continuous shear connection are presented. This paper follows a study by the authors, in …

The push-out test was carried out in order to study the shear performance of perfobond ribs
(PBL) and puzzle (PZ) shape composite dowel shear connectors which are used in …

Aiming at the full and proper exploitation of both steel and Ultra High Performance
cementitious Fiber Reinforced Composites (UHPFRC) materials, this paper proposes a new …

The unique compressive and tensile characteristics of ultra-high performance concrete
(UHPC) have enabled advancement of non-traditional shear connectors to provide …
