description Builders, designers, and the research community are becoming interested in incorporating timber and concrete based composite structures because they effectively integrate the structural qualities of timber and concrete. The structure’s stiffness, ductility, and load capacity are all affected by the quality of the timber connections used in construction. However, timber-concrete-based structures are limited due to a lack of design knowledge and the brittle failure behaviour of timber under shear or tensile loading. Experimental, numerical, and analytical methods have been proposed in the literature, and the key parameters influencing the performance of timber-concrete structures have been discussed. This study addresses the current challenges in designing timber-concrete connections and their failure modes and suggests simple performance-based analytical models that determine the failure mode. It looks at some of the best numerical design methods used in the past and tries to determine the best way to use timber as a possible way to use safe design principles for timber–concrete composite structures in the future.
