Abstract

This study investigates the shear-bond behavior of composite deck slabs incorporating profiled steel sheeting through a series of small-scale push-off and pull-out tests. The experimental program evaluates the influence of mechanical interlock, friction, and embossment geometry on the interface performance between concrete and steel sheeting. Specimens were prepared using galvanized steel profiles and tested under varying vertical loads to simulate realistic shear conditions. The results demonstrate that re-entrant features and embossments significantly enhance shear resistance by preventing horizontal slip and vertical separation. Frictional coefficients were quantified, and failure mechanisms were observed to resemble those in full-scale slab tests. The findings provide critical insights for developing finite element models and optimizing composite slab design, offering a cost-effective alternative to full-scale testing.

  14. One thing I would like to comment on is that weight loss program fast can be carried out by the suitable diet and exercise. People’s size not simply affects appearance, but also the complete quality of life. Self-esteem, depressive disorder, health risks, plus physical abilities are affected in putting on weight. It is possible to just make everything right and still gain. Should this happen, a condition may be the primary cause.
