Postinstalled Shear Connectors: A Case Study of a Strengthened and Monitored Bridge

Abstract

Abstract Today, steel girder bridges with an overlaying concrete deck are typically designed and constructed as composite structures. This approach optimizes the utilization of materials and structural components. However, many existing steel–concrete ... Practical Applications Steel girder bridges with concrete decks are commonly designed as steel–concrete composite structures, optimizing material use and structural efficiency. However, many existing bridges lack shear connectors at the steel–concrete ...
