New evaluation and modeling procedure for horizontal shear bond in composite slabs

A new method for modeling the horizontal shear bond in steel deck-concrete composite slabs is proposed. The method considers the slab slenderness as the strength parameter that affects the accuracy of horizontal shear bond modeling. A calculation procedure called the Force Equilibrium method is deve...
