This study conducted experiments to investigate the flexural behavior of steel–concrete composite beams with U-shaped sections, utilizing cold-formed lipped channels as web components. To enhance both flexural and shear performance, trapezoidal plates were added to the lower sides of the composite beams. A total of ten specimens were fabricated, with variables defined according to the following criteria: presence of bottom tension reinforcement and bottom studs, thickness of the trapezoidal side plates (6 mm and 8 mm), and the welding method. Four-point bending tests were conducted, and all specimens exhibited typical flexural failure at the ultimate state. Specimens with bottom tension reinforcement, specifically those in the H5-T6 and H5-T8 series, demonstrated increases in ultimate load of 28.8% and 33.5%, respectively, compared to specimens without tension reinforcement. The use of lipped channels enabled full composite action between the concrete and the steel web components, eliminating the need for stud anchors. Additionally, it was confirmed that the plastic neutral axis, reflecting the material test strengths, was located within the concrete slab as intended. This study also compared the design flexural strengths, calculated using the yield stress distribution method from structural steel design standards such as AISC 360 and KDS 14, with the experimental flexural strengths. The comparison was used to evaluate the applicability of current design standards.
