경간 40m~100m 정도 경간에 대해 일반적으로 강 박스 거더교에 대한 설계가 이루어지고 있다. 상부구조의 자중을 줄이기 위해서 복합트러스 교량에서 복부의 콘크리트 웹 대신에 강 사재가 사용되고 있다. 이러한 복합트러스 교량의 설계 시 가장 중요한 부분 중의 하나가 콘크리트 상 하부를 연결하는 연결부의 형태이다. 이러한 접합부는 외부에서 작용하는 조합하중을 분담해야하는데, 아직 이러한 접합구조에 대한 명확한 설계기준이 없는 실정이다. 한계상태에서 격점부의 하중전달에 대한 명확한 연구와 설계방법에 대한 조사가 필요하다. 콘크리트 상 하부를 연결하는 격점부 사재는 다양한 연결형태가 있다. 이번 논문에서는 거셋 플레이트에 용접되어진 그룹 스터드 연결재에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 25mm 절곡 스터드를 사용하여 수행된 전단실험을 통하여 현재의 스터드 간 최소기준 간격을 만족하는 상태에서는 현재의 설계 규정을 사용할 수 있음을 밝혔다. 휨-전단 실험을 통해서는 조합하중이 작용하는 격점부의 상세를 개선하였다. 격점부의 인발강도를 증진시키기 위해서 절곡 스터드가 제안되었고 그룹 스터드의 최 외측 스터드에 적용되었다. 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 복합 트러스 교량의 개선된 격점부 상세가 개선되고 설계 방안이 제안되었다.

This study was conducted to investigate the residual bearing capacity of steel-concrete composite beams under high-cycle fatigue loading through experiments and theoretical analysis. Six test beams with stud connectors were designed and fabricated for static, complete fatigue, and partial fatigue tests. The failure modes and the degradation of several mechanical performance indicators of the composite beams under high-cycle fatigue loading were analyzed. A calculation method for the residual bearing capacity of the composite beams after certain quantities of cyclic loading cycles was established by introducing nonlinear fatigue damage models for concrete, steel beam, and shear connectors beginning with the material residual strength attenuation process. The results show that the failure mode of the composite beams under the given fatigue load appears to be primarily affected by the number of cycles. As the number of fatigue loadings increases, the failure mode transforms from mid-span concrete crushing to stud cutting. The bearing capacity of a 3.0-m span composite beam after two million fatigue cycles is degraded by 30.7% due to premature failure of the stud. The calculated values of the residual bearing capacity method of the composite beam established in this paper agree well with the test values, which indicates that the model is feasibly applicable.

The use of precast hollow-core slabs (PCHCS) in civil construction has been increasing due to the speed of execution and reduction in the weight of flooring systems. However, in the literature there are no studies that present a finite element model (FEM) to predict the load-slip relationship behavior of pushout tests, considering headed stud shear connector and PCHCS placed at the upper flange of the downstand steel profile. Thus, the present paper aims to develop a FEM, which is based on tests to fill this gap. For this task, geometrical non-linear analyses are carried out in the ABAQUS software. The FEM is calibrated by sensitivity analyses, considering different types of analysis, the friction coefficient at the steel-concrete interface, as well as the constitutive model of the headed stud shear connector. Subsequently, a parametric study is performed to assess the influence of the number of connector lines, type of filling and height of the PCHCS. The results are compared with analytical models that predict the headed stud resistance. In total, 158 finite element models are processed. It was concluded that the dynamic implicit analysis (quasi-static) showed better convergence of the equilibrium trajectory when compared to the static analysis, such as arc-length method. The friction coefficient value of 0.5 was indicated to predict the load-slip relationship behavior of all models investigated. The headed stud shear connector rupture was verified for the constitutive model capable of representing the fracture in the stress-strain relationship. Regarding the number of connector lines, there was an average increase of 108% in the resistance of the structure for models with two lines of connectors compared to the use of only one. The type of filling of the hollow core slab that presented the best results was the partial filling. Finally, the greater the height of the PCHCS, the greater the resistance of the headed stud.

CFT 구조는 내부의 콘크리트와 강관의 합성거동을 위한 전단연결재를 필요로 한다. 하지만, 현행 설계기준에서는 통상적으로 무근콘크리트로 채워지는 CFT 구조에 적용할 수 있는 전단연결재에 대한 설계기준을 제시하고 있지 않다. 본 연구는 강-콘크리트 합성구조에 널리 사용되는 스터드 전단연결재를 CFT 구조에 적용하기 위한 설계기준 즉, CFT 구조에 적용된 스터드 전단연결재의 전단강도를 제안하기 위한 연구의 일환으로 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 CFT 구조에 적용된 스터드의 전단강도를 결정하는 주된 파괴모드를 검토하기 위하여 무근콘크리트를 적용한 직접전단실험체를 이용하여 실험을 수행하고 파괴모드를 분석하기 위한 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 직접전단실험 및 유한요소해석결과로부터 CFT 구조에 적용된 스터드 전단연결재의 주된 파괴모드는 콘크리트의 쪼갬파괴이며, 이러한 파괴모드로 인하여 철근콘크리트에 적용된 스터드에 비해 전단강도가 감소한다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다.

The stud shear connector is the main force transfer member in the steel-concrete composite member, and the mechanical behavior is very complicated in the concrete. The concrete around the stud is subjected to the pry-out local pressure concentration of the stud, which can easily produce splitting mirco-cracks. In order to solve the problem of pry-out local splitting of stud shear connector, a kind of stud shear connector with constraint measure is proposed in this paper. Through the push-out test, the interface shear behavior of the new stud shear connector between steel and concrete flange plate was studied, and the difference between the new stud shear connector and the traditional stud connector was compared. The results show that the stud shear connector with constraint measure can effectively avoid the adverse effect of local pressure splitting by relying on its own constraint measure. The shear stiffness of the interface between steel and concrete flange plates is greatly improved, which provides a theoretical basis for the design of strong connection coefficient of steel-concrete composite structures.

The use of shear studs usually placed in the form of mechanical shear connectors makes it possible to adopt composite steel-concrete structures in various structures, and steel-concrete plate composite (SCP) is being seriously considered for the installation of storage tanks exposed to harsh environments. However, manufacturing of SCP must be based on the application of existing design guidelines which require very close arrangement of shear studs. This means that the direct application of current design guidelines usually produces very conservative results and close arrangement of shear studs precludes pouring concrete within exterior steel faceplates. In this light, an improved guideline to determine the stud spacing should be introduced, and this paper proposes an improved ratio of the stud spacing to the thickness of steel plate on the basis of numerous parametric studies to evaluate the relative influence of the stud spacing on the stability of the SCP.

For the fast construction and replacement of bridges in urban area, a prefabricated bridge system can be an excellent alternative. Details of prefabricated slabs for PSC girders were developed and static tests on shear connections were conducted to propose design equations of the shear connection. Stirrups and stud connectors were used as shear connectors and non-shrink mortar was used for the filling material in shear pockets for shear connectors. Stirrups and studs were fabricated to insert embedded nut-type devices in PSC girders. Shear strength of the shear connection considering chemical bond, friction and mechanical connectors was evaluated and empirical equations were suggested. Due to the mechanical connectors, ultimate slip capacity of the shear connection was sufficient for shear load redistribution, and suggested details of the shear connection showed good performance in terms of strength and ductility.

Bolted connector could be an alternative to replace the conventional welded headed stud in steel-ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) lightweight composite structures. In this paper, a novel demountable bolted shear connector, consisting of a high-strength bolt (HSB) and a specially-designed nut which is pre-embedded in a thin UHPC slab, is proposed, which may result in the quick installation and disassembly, due to the mountable, demountable and reusable features. In order to study the shear behavior of the new type of bolted shear connector, static push-out tests were conducted on five groups of the novel demountable bolted shear connector specimens and one group of conventional welded headed stud specimen for comparison. The effect of the bolt shank diameter and aspect ratio of bolt on failure mode, shear stiffness, peak slip at the steel-UHPC interface, shear strength and ductility of novel bolted connectors is investigated. Additionally, design formula for the shear strength is proposed to check the suitability for assessment of the novel demountable bolted shear connectors.

Composite beam, which combined the material characteristic of the steel and concrete, has been widely used in the construction of various building and bridge system. For the effective application of the composite beam, the composite action on the composite interface between the concrete element and the steel element should be achieved by shear connectors. The behavioral characteristics of composite beam are related with the degree of interaction and the degree of shear connection according to the shear strength and shear stiffness of the stud shear connectors. These two concepts are also affected by the number of installed shear connector and the strength of composite materials. In this study, experimental and analytical evaluations of the degree of shear connection affected by stud diameter were conducted, and the relationship between structural behavior and the degree of shear connection was verified. The very small difference among the ultimate loads of the specimens depending on the change of the degree of connection was possibly because of the dependence of the ultimate load on the characteristic of plastic moment of the composite beam.
