Degree of shear connection<br />

Use two shear connectors per trough<br />

(i.e. 2 per 300 mm spacing)<br />

Resistance of shear connector:<br />

DESIGN OF SIMPLY<br />

SUPPORTED COMPOSITE<br />

BEAM<br />

From Table 21.4, characteristic strength = 100 kN<br />

Design strength = 0.8 ¥ 100 = 80 kN<br />

For lightweight concrete multiply by 0.9<br />

Design strength (LWC) = 0.9 ¥ 80 = 72 kN<br />

Reduction factor for profile shape (equation 21.15)<br />

Number of shear connectors in half span = =<br />

150<br />

Therefore use r = 0.8 for pairs of shear connectors as required in<br />

BS 5950: Part 3 Clause 5.4.7.2.<br />

Total resistance of shear connectors<br />

R q = 0.8 ¥ 72 ¥ 40 = 2304 kN<br />

As R q < Rs<br />

and Rq < Rc<br />

redesign beam for partial shear connection.<br />

= 162 . > 08 .<br />
