Keywords: composite structural systems, steel-to-concrete shear connection, perforated connectors.

Summary

The results of push-out tests performed at the Civil Engineering Department of the University of Coimbra, Portugal, on perforated steel shear connectors with varying geometries suitable for steel and concrete composite floors are presented and discussed. In addition to the tests using the previously presented Perfobond and T-Perfobond geometries, further tests on two innovative geometries, the I-Perfobond and Double T-Perfobond were also performed. The shear connector geometry and the provision of transverse reinforcement within a shear connector's holes are the major variables in this study. Some results focusing on the shear connector's shear transfer capacity, ductility and collapse modes are presented. Finally, a comparison of these innovative perforated connectors performance with the traditional studs, highlights the economical and structural relevance of these connectors.
