Abstract:A new type composite dowel shear connector was proposed by introducing folded angles in the steel dowels. Four push-out specimens and two composite beam specimens were designed and experimentally studied. The structural behavior and failure mechanism of the composite folded dowel shear connection were investigated. The concrete failure was observed in both push-out and flexural tests, and the folded steel dowels were capable of yielding development. It is found that the bearing capacity and shear stiffness of … Show more
