Abstract: The composite pier, which consists of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) and normal strength concrete (NSC), is a promising option for practical engineering due to its remarkable mechanical performance. However, the ...

Abstract: Perfobond rib shear connectors (known as PBL shear connectors) are structures widely used to transfer loads between concrete and steel structural elements. The performance of PBL shear connectors under monotonic loads has ...
