This paper presents an assessment and quantification of the environmental impacts arising
from different steel-concrete composite floor systems. In particular, a demountable …

Although cold-formed steel (CFS) members have been widely used in structures, their
application is limited due to the buckling and instability of these members. To enhance their …

The design of engineering structures for deconstructability can reduce the energy and cost
required for their demolition and for the disposal of their construction waste, and it also …

This research presents a study on the numerical simulation of the structural behavior of
bolted shear connectors used as force transfer device in concrete-filled composite columns …

This paper concerns the cyclic behaviour of embedded bolted shear connectors in steel-
timber composite joints. The effect of the strength and size of the shear connector and the …

Composite cold-formed steel (CFS)-concrete structures have been widely used due to their
benefits such as more ultimate strength, stiffness, and postponement of lateral buckling …

This paper presents a study of the behaviour of riveted bolt shear connectors applied in
composite columns of cold-formed steel sections (CFS) filled with concrete. The use of these …

Studies of steel-timber composite (STC) connections and STC beams under sagging
bending have been reported elsewhere in the literature using push-out and four-point …

Over the last decades, shear connectors have become indispensable in the engineering of
composite structures. However, there is a lack of behaviour of these devices, especially …

In recent published works, the feasibility and composite action of steel-timber composite
(STC) systems have been demonstrated through push-out tests on STC joints and bending …
