Finite element analysis of steel-concrete composite girders

Finite element models for the analysis of solid slabs and precast hollow core slabs composite girders are presented. For both models, 8-node three-dimensional solid elements are used in the analysis. The material non-linearity of all components of the composite girders is taken into consideration. The non-linear load-slip characteristics of the headed shear stud connectors are included in the models. The models predict load – deflection behaviour and stress distribution along the length of the beam. Good agreement is obtained between the models and results previously published.
