Abstract
For multi-story structural systems, Korean steel industry has fostered development of a steel-concrete composite
beam. Configuration of the composite beam is characterized by steel angle shear connectors welded to a U-shaped cold formedsteel beam. Effects of shear connector orientation and spacing were studied to evaluate current application of the angle shear
connector design equation in AC495. For the study, interfacial shear resistance behavior was investigated by conducting 24
push-out tests and attuned using unreinforced push-out specimens. Interfacial shear to horizontal slip response was reported
along with corresponding failure patterns. Pure shear connector strength was also evaluated by excluding concrete shear
contribution, which was estimated in relation to steel beam-slab interface separation or interfacial crack width.
