Experimental Analysis of the Mechanical Behavior of Shear Connectors for Precast Sandwich Wall Panels When Subjected to the Push-Out Tests

Precast concrete sandwich panels consist of two outer layers connected by a central connector and an inner insulating layer that enhances thermal and acoustic performance. A key challenge with these panels is eliminating thermal bridges caused by metallic connectors, which reduce energy efficiency....
