Abstract

Steel-concrete composite beams are widely used in practice because of the simple construction sequence and the economic cross-section design. The application of welded headed studs in composite beams prevents the non-destructive separation of the composite beam, which leads to a very low scoring in the sustainability assessment in terms of the reuse of structural components. A demountable connection between the steel beam and concrete deck must be made to allow for reusability and adaptability of the structure, which maximizes its functional lifetime and minimizes its
environmental footprint.
