Finite Element Analysis of Controlled-Slip Bolted Shear Connectors for Interface Deformation Coordination in Negative-Moment Regions of Steel–UHPC Composite Beams
To improve deformation compatibility in the negative-moment regions of continuous steel–ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) composite girders, this study investigates a controlled-slip bolted shear connector in which bolt-hole clearance is intentionally used as a deformation-release parameter. A three-dimensional no...
