Strength Capacity and Failure Mode of Shear Connectors Suitable for Composite Cold Formed Steel Beams: Numerical Study

In this paper, the findings of numerical modeling of the composite action between normal concrete and Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) beams are presented. To obtain comprehensive structural behavior, the numerical model was designed using 3-D brick components. The simulation results were correlated to the e...
