As a longtime detailer, Henry Lederman knew the drill. Most structural fabricators had standards that defined the way they did things. Some were ¾-in. bolt shops that liked to use double-angle ...

Abstract: In order to study the connection behavior of the perforated plate and the corrugated perforated plate, which are two new types of shear connectors used for steel-concrete composite beams. By ...

In conventional composite construction involving hot-rolled steel section, the composite action is usually achieved by using conventional headed shear studs connectors. However, use of headed studs is ...

Yielding shear plates have been widely used in metallic dampers as the primary source of energy dissipation. This study investigated the behavior of yielding shear plates with different aspect ratios ...
