Relying on a practical application in pre-stressed concrete box-girder with corrugated steel web, four models of Twin-PBL shear connector are made and experimented in push-out test. The main research contents are influences for bearing capacity and load-slip relationship. The results show that: when the size of holes on the steel plate has a definite value, the connectors bearing capacity get a significantly development when the diameter of reinforced-throughout increases in the appropriate range. If the space between reinforced-throughout and holes are too small, the coarse aggregate will be prevented into the holes so as to reduce its bearing capacity. In addition, thickness of steel plate has less influence on bearing capacity of connectors. All models show similar load-slip trend and superior ductility. Finally, according to comparing and analyzing differences between calculated values from recommended formulas and measured values from tests, a new formula is deduced which can estimate the test results well. The standardization of push-out test needs further research so that Twin-PBL Shear Connectors can be widely used in project.

Relying on a practical application in pre-stressed concrete box-girder with corrugated steel web, four angle shear connector specimens are made and experimented in push-out test. The results show that: in the ultimate load level, failure model appears after large slip occurring between connector and concrete which shows a good ductility of angle shear connector. The main influence factors for the bearing capacity of connector is thickness of angle web, U-shaped steel provides certain shear resistance ability to same extent. Finally, through the contrast analysis between measured values and theoretical values, a new bearing capacity formula is proposed. Compared with the recommended formulae, the calculated results from proposed formula is most close to the text results, thus new formula can be used for security design and calculation.

Abstract. In the presented paper, reverse push-out test method was put forward and applied in the ultimate bearing capacity experiments of studs with concrete slab in tension. Ultimate bearing capacity experiments were carried out on 22 reverse push-out specimens composed of C50 or C40 concrete, 14MnNbq steel girder and Φ22studs. Results showed that ultimate bearing capacity of studs, pu, in tensile concrete slab is controlled by concrete failur, concrete strength, studs arragement and reinforcement ratio are the main influence factors of pu. Compared with that in compressive concrete, pu of Φ22 studs in tensile concrete is reduced about 30% averagely. According to the test results, a fitted load-slip relationship curve and a regression formula of pu for studs in tensile concrete were put forward, calculated results were in good agreement with the test results.

In order to improve the stiffness and shear bearing capacity of steel-UHPC composite bridge, an innovative shear connector named arc-shaped reinforcement shear connector was proposed and compared with the stud and perforated bar steel plate shear connector using the static push-out test. Considering shear connector diameter, a total of ten push-out specimens for five groups were designed. The results indicated that the failure modes and failure mechanism of the arc-shaped reinforcement shear connectors were significantly different from stud shear connector and perforated bar steel plate. Obvious failure characteristics such as crack and reinforcement were not observed for the arc-shaped reinforcement specimens except for fine cracks on the top of one specimen, but these were observed for the others two types of shear connector. The relative slip value of arc-shaped reinforcement shear connector at the maximum load was the smallest and less than 1 mm in three types of shear connectors. The stiffness and shear bearing capacity of arc-shaped reinforcement were higher than those of stud and perforated bar steel plate under the same diameter. Increasing arc-shaped reinforcement diameter could improve significantly static behavior of shear connector. When the diameter of arc-shape reinforcement was increased from 8 mm to 12 mm, the ductility factor, stiffness, and shear bearing capacity of arc-shaped reinforcement shear connector were improved by 174.32%, 214.76%, and 54.2%, respectively. A calculation method of shear bearing capacity was proposed by the least square method and multiple regression analysis and agreed well with the test result.

The shear connector design should be executed according to the SP 266.1325800.2016. For the different typed of welded connectors are there analytic dependences, which could be used for shear connection strength estimation. The design code also allows to use powder-actuated Z-shape shear connectors. Their bearing capacity should be proved by tests according to the GOST R 58336-2018. Inasmuch the GOST doesn't consist the test estimation approach, the authors offer the method. For the test estimation methods the test results of 15 series specimen had been used. The results were compared with estimation according to the European standard for the verification.

When Perfobond Rib shear connectors are used as flexural materials in structures such as bridges, they show flexural shear behavior due to external force, rather than direct shear behavior. The aim of this study is thus to analyze the difference between both behaviors. First, we prepared a specimen to analyze direct shear behavior using Perfobond Rib shear connectors, analyzed the characteristics of behavior with a push-out test and proposed a formula of shear resistance assessment. Proposed formula shows a relatively good fit with less than 10% error. A flexural shear test was then conducted based on the result of the direct shear test. Based on the static flexural test it analyzed the flexural behavior and the flexural shear stress it calculated. Direct shear stress and EN 1994-1-1 to lead and be calculated, it compared the flexural shear stress and it analyzed in about the shear resistance stress which it follows in load direction. Finally, we compared both test results, and the comparison showed that the flexural shear stress is approximately 6% stronger than the direct shear stress.

This study mainly focused on the experimental evaluation of pipe-shape shear connectors for multi-beam box girder bridges. The multi-beam box girder bridges are a structure to the integration with the box girders placed adjacent to each other. They are generally connected by shear keys and loop joints to resist the shear force at their interfaces, and lateral tendons for applying the compression force. However, if the integration effect decreases with time, the relative deflection between adjacent girders occurs and it causes the reflective cracks on the deck along the interfaces. Furthermore, the efficiency of constructing multi-beam box girder bridges decreases when loop joints are used because it is complicated to form the required connections using couplers. Therefore, this study evaluated behavior of pipe-shape shear connectors which are superior in workability and ductility than loop joints by push-out tests and pull-out tests.

A new type of PBL shear connector gets more attention with the rapid development of steel-concrete composite structure. The PBL shear connector's static behavior and influence factors thereof are analysed through experiments. The PBL shear connector's force-transmission mechanism is discussed. The conclusions show that the thickness of perforate plate has significant impact of PBL shear connectors design bearing capacity, shear stiffness and ultimate bearing capacity. According to the thickness of perforate plate, the failure mode of PBL shear connector may appear to flexural and shear failure of perforate rebar, shear failure of perforate rebar or shear failure of perforate plate.

In conventional composite construction for hot-rolled steel (HRS) section, the composite action is usually achieved by using headed studs shear connectors. But, for cold-formed steel (CFS) section, the use of headed studs is not feasible as the section is very thin and difficult to be weld.  Therefore, an innovative way of shear connection mechanism of using bolt and nut is suggested in this study. This paper presents the feasibility of using bolt as shear connector by presenting experimental test results so as to explore more on their capability to be used as shear connectors. The study investigated the structural capability of the proposed bolted shear connector when used in concrete known as Self-compacting concrete (SCC) integrated with CFS to provide the required composite action. Push out test specimens with bolted shear connector of grade 8.8 at designated intervals longitudinally spaced were fabricated, cast and tested to failure. The results showed that the proposed shear connector was structurally capable and also an appreciable strength resistance was achieved.

To study local buckling of Corrugated Steel Plate under concentrated loads. Through experimental tests and theorical analysis, bearing capacity and failure form of Corrugated Steel Plate were discussed. Bearing capacity of Corrugated Steel Plate associated with local buckling, which can be assumed to be composed of three parts: buckling of plane rigid frame caused by concentrated loads, buckling of roof and web caused by bending stress. These three parts were unified by buckling relevant equations, then local buckling calculation formula was obtained. Comparing with experimental results, the loads obtained by local buckling calculation formula agree with test results very well. Since the buckling calculation is independent of the material strength, the calculation formula of local buckling is reliable, it can be used to evaluate local buckling of Corrugated Steel Plate.
