AN ANALYSIS OF THE LOAD-BEARING CAPACITY OF TIMBER-CONCRETE COMPOSITE BEAMS WITH PROFILED SHEETING

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 27

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of timber-concrete composite beams. Said composite beams consist of rectangular timber beams and concrete slabs poured into the steel sheeting. The concrete slab is connected with the timber beam using special shear connectors. The authors of this article are trying to patent these connectors. The article contains results from a numerical analysis. It is demonstrated that the type of steel sheeting used as a lost formwork has an influence on the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of the timber-concrete composite beams.
