This paper presents a finite element model for the analysis of composite beams with partial
interaction. In this model, the elements of the composite beams are modeled by six different …

This article introduces a novel modeling and simulation methodology that advances the
understanding of steel deck and concrete slab micromechanics for bending and pull-out …

This paper presents an experimental and analytical study of composite slabs with additional
reinforcement bars. The analytical model is based on mk method and is able to estimate the …

Composite steel-concrete slabs are widely used in floor construction in steel-framed
buildings where the connection between the steel beam and the concrete slab through …

Composite deck slabs have been extensively adopted in construction of buildings, as they
lead to lighter, more economical structures and higher execution speed. When analyzing the …

The 4-point bending test, prescribed by most standards, is the conventional test used to
determine the shear resistance of steel-concrete composite slabs, whereas loading …

This study focuses on the development and assessment of advanced construction materials,
such as a unique slab design, longitudinal void configurations, and profiled steel deck. The …

The most restrictive failure mode of steel–concrete composite slabs is longitudinal shear.
The partial connection method (PCM) is a design method for longitudinal shear capacity …

Composite steel–concrete deck slabs are used in floor construction in steel-framed buildings
where the connection between steel beam and the concrete slab through shear connectors …

This paper concentrated on the improvement of shear bond strength through the insertion of
shear connectors between the composite deck slab and the supporting steel beam. A total of …
