This paper presents a survey on the state-of-the-art of timber-concrete composite research in
the past and recent years. The most important literature references were carefully selected …

Timber–concrete composite beams and slabs require interlayer connectors, which provide
composite action in the cross-section. A range of mechanical connectors is available on the …

This paper describes recent research and development of a new system for multi-storey
prestressed timber buildings in New Zealand. The new system gives opportunities for much …

Composite concrete slab and timber flooring systems are commonly used in many parts of
the world to exploit the high strength-to-weight ratio of timber and the good acoustic …

This paper reports the experimental results of symmetrical push-out tests performed on
notched and toothed metal plate connectors for laminated veneer lumber (LVL)-concrete …

The use of composite beams made with traditional concrete and bio-based materials (such
as timber and bamboo) is a valuable solution to reduce the environmental impact of the …

This paper reports the results of experimental push-out tests on three different types of
timber–concrete composite (TCC) connections, including normal screw, SFS and bird …

The mechanical performance of shear connectors has an important effect on the load
bearing capacity and the bending stiffness of timer-concrete composite (TCC) beams. Most …

In conventional timber–concrete composite (TCC) beams, timber joists and concrete slabs
are connected permanently; however, the permanent timber–concrete connections can …

The load-carrying capacity and ultimate deformation capacity of timber–concrete composite
systems can be significantly influenced by the ductility of the connection between the two …
