Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a newly developed shear connection for steel–timber composite (STC) floor beams. The connection's mechanical behaviour is investigated through experimental tests, including push‐out tests and hygroscopic assessments, which are used to determine the load–slip response, identify the governing failure mode, and evaluate the effects of dimensional changes in wood. Finite element method (FEM) simulations are then conducted to reproduce the connection behaviour numerically. Finally, a component‐based method is proposed to determine the shear connection properties, including stiffness and strength, and to assess its efficiency through comparison with conventional dowel‐type connections.
