Abstract:
This paper presents an experimental study on tensile behavior of steel and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) composite structure connected by different connections including epoxy resin adhesive, headed stud, and hybrid of the former two. Thirty-two pull-out tests are conducted by taking the connection type, specimen size and steel fiber content of UHPC as the main parameters. The influences of these main parameters on the failure mode, load-separation behavior, and ultimate resistance of connection are researched. The failure modes of specimens with hybrid connection are UHPC interface debonding and UHPC cone failure, which is identical with the epoxy resin adhesive connection and headed stud connection, respectively. The tensile resistance ratio of headed stud connection to epoxy resin adhesive connection has a significant influence both on the separation performance and tensile resistance of hybrid connection. An empirical equation for predicting the tensile resistance of hybrid connection was proposed by taking the tensile resistance ratio of headed stud to epoxy resin adhesive. The ratio of predicted to test result was 0.973with standard deviations of 0.070. The pull-out tests and analysis of the hybrid connection in steel-UHPC composite structure were still needed to study to get it improved. © 2024 Institution of Structural Engineers
