ABSTRACT
With the purpose of evaluating the influence of both the size and configurations of
horizontal shear connectors in simply supported reinforced concrete T-beams of webs
partially cast in steel channels, an experimental program was carried out using three large-
scale composite reinforced concrete beam models of the configuration, constituents,
geometry, and interconnection defined above have been manufactured, loaded up-to-failure.
Laboratory observed and measured responses were interpreted to predict the fracture patterns
in addition to the ultimate bending moment capacity, flexural stiffness, and flexural integrity
from variations of the midspan deflection and relative longitudinal end slip with load.
The privilege of the present horizontal-bar shear connector over the traditional
headed-stud style in reinforced concrete T-beams cast in steel channel has been verified and
evaluated by a comparative investigation with the findings of a recent previous experimental
study on such composite reinforced concrete T-beams with the competitive headed-stud shear
connectors , from which beams with new horizontal-bar shear connector have revealedsubstantially higher ultimate bending moment capacity ,flexural stiffness and flexural
integrity (represented by the measured relative longitudinal end-slip). Enhancement realized
in the mechanical parameters specified above are 43%, 33% and 33% respectively.

1. INTRODUCTION
The present study deals with the flexural behavior of simply supported composite
reinforced concrete beams shown in Fig 1consisting of T-section reinforced concrete prismscast in steel channels with transverse horizontal bars across beam web extending between
opposite holes in the two flanges of the steel channel acting as shear connectors.
The flexural behavior to be studied includes: ultimate flexural resistance, load
deflection relation, moment curvature relation, load- longitudinal slip (at beam ends) relation,
and mode of failure (type and shape).
The suggested study comprises the following aspects:
i.Superiority of the present shear connectors in producing high flexural performance (given
by the five flexural criteria mentioned above) over the corresponding performance of the
traditional headed studs.
ii.Effect of varying the configuration of the longitudinal distribution.In each of the two above aspects, five specified large scale models of the present type of
composite beam were fabricated, loaded and tested, three of which are discussed in this
paper.
2. REVIEW
Few research dealing with reinforced concrete beams cast in steel channels were
done. Taylor in 1979[1] made an experimental study on a variety of simply supported beams
using two types of testing. Taylor and Burdon, in 1972[2] reported tests on six simply
supported composite beams having the cross section shown in Fig.2 with mild steel channel
as tensile reinforcement.
Yousif, in 1982 [3],made an experimental study by using four simply supported
reinforced concrete T-beam cast in to steel channels ,simulating them as parts of a continuous
beam at support section ,tested to investigate their behavior in shear and in hogging bending.
Test data was critically analyzed to suggest the methods of prediction of shear and flexural
loads, and to explore the possibilities of the application of simple plastic theory for the
analysis of continuous composite reinforced concrete beam.

Abdu Al-Razag in 1985 [4], made another experimental study by using six simply
supported reinforced concrete T-beam casts in steel channels, to investigate the behavior of
sagging moment regions. He suggested a computerized method of analysis based on the
theoretical moment-curvature relationship for sagging moment section. By that program, thecomputerized methods for the short term deflection at service load can be calculated based on
gross concrete section, neglecting reinforcement.
Abdul-Hussein[5] in 2007 ,presented a three-dimensional finite element analysis to
predict the behavior of composite T-concrete beam with web partly cast in steel channel. The
general purpose finite element software ANSYS (version 9.0) has been used during this
analysis. The nonlinearity of materials due to cracking and crushing of the concrete, yielding
of steel channel and reinforcing bars, and interface at the steel channel-concrete were
considered. The study was performed to study the influence of several parameters such as
strength of concrete, the degree of connection and span/depth ratio on the behavior of load-
deflection curve and the ultimate load.
Al-Hadithy and Al-Kerbooli [6] in 2008, made four reinforced concrete beams of
rectangular cross-section and four corresponding composite ones consisting of reinforcedconcrete prisms cast in steel channel with shear connectors were manufactured , loaded ,and
tested in the laboratory to measure mid-span deflections, and to observe fracture criteria. The
reinforced concrete prism of each of the four composite beams is of rectangular cross-section
and identical to its corresponding reinforced concrete beam .A parametric study on the effect
of flange width of the steel channel shows that a 40% increase in the ultimate load capacity
can be realized by a one-third increase in that parameter with a slight decrease in ductility
ratio.
Al-Ta'ai, A.A [7] in 2009, presented study three-dimensional finite element analysis
to predict the behavior of a special form, cost-effective type of composite construction, a
composite reinforced concrete T-beam enclosed by a large steel channel in the entire concrete
web and connected in soffit of the beam by shear connectors with and without construction
joint at flange-web junction. Parametric study includes the influence of parameters on largesteel channel instead of small steel channel for composite reinforced concrete T-beam
without construction joint; including removal of internal reinforcement, thickness of steel
channel, yield strength of steel channel, concrete compressive strength, degree of partial
connection, coefficient of friction, ratio of compressive reinforcement and Poisson's ratio.
This study compared the analytical results from the ANSYS of finite element models with
tested beams for two types of composite reinforced concrete with small steel channel (T-
beam and inverse T-beam), as two beams for each type. The analytical results show good
agreement with the experimental results.
Only two previous published investigations have met (in the present study) regarding
the use of horizontal transverse shear connectors in the initially low-cost concrete beams cast
into steel channel. The target of those two researches was to reduce the cost even further.
Clark and Nelson[8 ] conducted in 1974, the first of those two investigations in
which a push-off test was carried out on transverse-bolt shear connectors (passing through
holes in the flanges of the channel )as defined by Fig 1 to ascertain their strength. The results
of their test are summarized in Table1 in which the values of the maximum load are the
averages from two push-off tests. The tabulated results show that in all cases the failure loads
were appreciable higher than the characteristic strength of the corresponding stud, but
certainly not twice these values.

Thereafter, Cunningham [9] in 1977, carried out a push-off test on another possible
type of transverse shear connectors; the transverse plain bar placed through holes in the
channel which in comparison with the bolt-is significantly cheaper. The results of their
push-off test are given in Table 2.

3. EXPERIMENTAL WORK
3.1 Description of test specimensThree beams were fabricated, loaded and tested .All the beams were simply supported
having 2000mm whole length and span. A typical model perspective, profile and cross-
section are shown in Fig2 from which it is seen that the flange width and thickness are
350mm and 80mm, respectively. Depth and breadth of the web are 90mm and
80mm, respectively. Depth of the T-beam web part cast in a steel channel of a depth is equal
to the breadth of the reinforced concrete web. Sectional dimension of the used steel channels
are shown in Fig 2 with details of their shear connectors.
3.2 Materials
Normal weight concrete used in the fabricated beams was produced by using Ordinary
Portland Cement (Type1) according to ASTM C150-86[10] produced by Kubasia cement
plant. In addition, the natural normal-weight sand from Al-Anbar west region was used as
fine aggregate, and crushed gravel of 10mm maximum size as coarse aggregate. Both the fine
and coarse aggregates used in the present work are subjected to sieve analysis according to
Iraqi specification. Mix ratio for concrete constituents was 1:2:3 by weight for cement, sandand gravel, respectively. Water/cement ratio was 0.45 by weight.

3.4 Fabrication and casting
Plate 1 show the steel channels with the horizontal shear connectors ,while plate
2shows a typical test specimen before casting of concrete, from which it is realized that the
cages of reinforcement were first placed at their appropriate positions in the framework(each consisting of the permanent steel channel and two attached temporary vertical plates
aligned with flanges of the steel channel ) after lubricating the inside vertical temporary faces
and before placement of concrete for easy removal of the side forms after hardening of the
concrete mix. Positioning of the transverse bolts by passing through precisely located holes inthe flanges of the steel channel was subsequent to the positioning of the reinforcement cage.

4. INSTRUMENTATION AND TESTING PROCEDURE
A convenient test frame was available in the heavy structures laboratory in the
University of Technology. The tests were done using the 2500 kN capacity Universal Testing
Mechine shown in plate 3. The test prototypes were subjected to a central 1- m length
uniformly distributed load applied at the top (compression) surface of the prototype. Two
series of steel I-Joists with rollers, steel plates and rubber pads were employed as a load
transfer device for the four prototypes .Details of the test setup are shown in Fig3 . Three dial
gauges having the smallest division of 0.01 mm were employed for each test prototype to
measure the mid span deflection and the two relative longitudinal end slips at concrete - steel
channel web interfaces at each load increment.

It may be noticed here that values of the ultimate crushing stress (i. e .characteristic strength;
Fcu) of the concrete are not same for the three investigated beams - as given in Table 3. To
find out the exclusive effects of the horizontal shear connectors amounts and distributions on
flexural behavior and integrity the observed load values are modified ( then presented in Figs.4 and 5 ) to eliminate the effect of variation in Fcu values. The modifications are done by
multiplying the observed load value of the concerned beam by the ratio () obtained by thefollowing relation:

6. DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
6.1 Measured Response
They are represented by the load- midspan deflection and the load~longitudinal endslip relationships exhibited in Fig 4 and 5, respectively.
a)Drawn from Fig4 is the fact that model M1 gives the higher resistance (ultimate bendingmoment) and flexural stiffness, where mid-span deflections at the ultimate stages of
models M2 and M3 are lower by 15% and 30% , respectively than that of model M1.
b)Concerning the longitudinal end relative slip at interfaces (which refers to the flexuralintegrity of the composite beam), its value for M1 (at load level ofM2 and M3) is the
least, where it is about 84% and 44% of those given byM2and M3, respectively. These
are inspected from Fig 5.
6.2 Observed responses
c)Observation ofFig5: Since differences between deflection and relative end-slip responsesbetween model M1 and M2 are relatively small, and M2 consumes about 60% the
number of the costly shear connector of model M1, model M2 is regarded as the
optimum model(among the three compared ones).
d)Mode of failure. With reference to plate 4 all of the tested prototypes failed due tocompression failure. Here concrete crushing occurred at some points in the flange within
the flange central compression zone directly beneath the 1-m length uniformly distributed
load (resembling the fracture pattern obtained in a previous experimental investigation on
beams of the same type but with headed stud shear connectors [12] ) . A symmetric two
sided inclined fracture surface begun at each of the two ends of the partial uniform load .
6.3 Comparison between present study and a recent oneTo evaluate the superiority of the horizontal transverse bar shear connector
(presently used in reinforced concrete T-beams cast in steel channels) over the traditional
vertical headed stud , a comparison has been made with one of the models of the
experimental work ofAl-Hadithy and Al-Alusi [12]. That model is similar to model M2 of
the present work (even in the distribution of shear connectors). The individual difference is
the use of the traditional vertical headed stud in the previous comparable study [12] .
Diameter of shanks of the previous headed studs and the present horizontal transverse bars
are the same.
a) Flexural stiffnessThis comparison is represented by the load~mid-span deflection relationships up to
failure for the two comparative beams which are given by Table (4) and Fig.(6). It is shown
that the maximum ultimate loads for the previous and the present beams are 58 kN and 83kN,
respectively (which means that replacing the formal type of shear connectors by the present
one increases the ultimate flexural capacity of the composite reinforcement concrete beam
by 43%). Moreover, the stiffness of the present model is larger (by 1/0.75=1.33) than the
stiffness of the former one.

model M2 and the corresponding beam model ofRef. [12]
b) Flexural integrityThe longitudinal horizontal slip along planes of interface between the reinforced concrete
web bottom end and the surrounding bottom steel channel is the most direct measurement of the"Flexural Integrity" of the composite reinforced concrete beam which is necessary to realize the
hoped "composite action . The natural bond between concrete and the steel channel prevents
that slip just in the initial load stage (whenever the bond strength increases, the occurance of slip
will be late). Hence, it can be considered that initial slip is the loss in bond and crushing of
concrete surrounding the interlocking devices.To evaluate the efficiency of the horizontal transverse-bar shear connectors (in
realizing the flexural integrity of the present reinforced concrete T-beams cast in steel channels)
over the traditional vertical headed stud, a comparison has been made with the same comparativemodel of the experimental work of Al- Hadithy and Al-Alusi [12]. This comparison is
represented by the load~end longitudinal slip for the two comparative beams which is given inTable (5) and Fig.(7).It is shown that the longitudinal end slip of the former model [12]
decreased by 25% when the traditional headed stud is replaced by horizontal transverse bar shear
connector of the same longitudinal distribution and spacing (model M2 of the present work). Thismeans that the new horizontal shear connector increases the flexural integrity by the same
average percentage.The reason behind this phenomenon is the attributed to the high flexural stiffness of
horizontal transverse shear connector in the comparison with the vertical headed stud of the sameshank diameter.In addition, there is a stress concentration near the base of the headed stud. High stresses,
reaching four times the concrete cube strength, are possible here because the concrete isrestrained by the steel flange, the connector and the reinforcement. The two major modes of
failure are crushing of the concrete surrounding the connector (for studs with large diameter) and
connector shearing off at the base (for slender studs). The strength of concrete can influence themode of failure, as well as the failure load. It appears that the stud strength is roughly
proportional to the square of its diameter and to the square root of concrete strength[13,14].
