Tests of partially connected composite plate girders

Shear Strength of Steel‐concrete Composite Plate Girders – A Review

“…In agreement with Yatim et al [18] the shear resistance of the steel plate girder VS can be evaluated by Eq. (14).…”

“…(Fig. 9 b) and c)) [18]. According to Table 7, the larger slab contribution to the overall shear strength is observed in girder G1C30, corresponding to a 71% resistance increasing when comparing with estimative from M4.…”

“…Composite test 3 -In 2015, authors of ML2 leaded an experimental campaign of eight composite plate girders, evaluating the influence of shear studs in what concerns the ultimate load ( Fig. 9 b) and c)) [18]. According to Table 7, the larger slab contribution to the overall shear strength is observed in girder G1C30, corresponding to a 71% resistance increasing when comparing with estimative from M4.…”

“…Following their one previously studies [10], Shanmugam and Baskar proposed in 2012 a reliable method to predict the shear strength of steel-concrete composite plate girders [16,17]. In 2015, Yatim et al updated this method [18], based on EC standards.…”

Strain Behaviour in Composite Plate Girders with Imperfect Shear Connection

“…View of a typical test set-up is shown in Figure 4. Nevertheless, only results for strains at specified load levels are presented in this paper whilst other results and properties of steel and concrete materials including details of the test procedure may be found in the reference (Yatim et al 2015). microstrain ( ) measured by strain gauge ST2 in the girder G1C20 at 600 kN.…”
