Abstract: Two series of pull-push specimens with 16 mm and 22 mm diameter headed stud shear connectors were built and tested as part of a general investigation on seismic design of steel-concrete composite beams with full and partial shear connection. In order to assess the shear connector performances from a seismic and damage standpoint, pull-push specimens have been exposed to series of variable, random and constant reversed slips.
Main results are commented upon and evaluated in terms of yielding and maximum shear strength capacity as well as ultimate slip ductility. A comparison between experimental and prediction strengths derived by relevant design code provisions provides an estimate of their accuracy. Finally, a low-cycle fatigue damage model is investigated to establish damage limit domains for headed studs.
