Abstract

This paper considers the behaviour of headed stud shear connectors on composite steel-concrete beams for both solid and profiled steel sheeting slabs under elevated temperatures. Both the experimental study and finite modelling are presented. Sixteen push tests were undertaken. The material properties changed according to the rate of heating when subjected to the elevated temperatures. The capability of the specimens to withstand loads during fire was illustrated by progressively loading the push tests up to the ultimate sensitive. The investigation of the shear resistance of the headed stud shear connectors as a function of temperature was allowed by the experimental studies.
