- Abstract
The reasonable design of shear connectors is the key to ensure the integral forced performance of steel-concrete composite beam. This paper presents an experimental research on the capacity of angle shear connectors. Six push-out specimens with different height and thickness of angles were included in this experiment. The failure mode observed in all specimens was the concrete crushing splitting. All specimens had a plastic behavior under load. The results show that the main factor which influences the ultimate bearing capacity of angel shear connectors is the thickness of flange and web. Increasing the height of flange of angles could slightly raise the ultimate bearing capacity.
