An Investigation On The Behaviour Of Timber-Concrete Composite T-Beams
Abstract
This paper describes a preliminary investigarion as the first part of a research programme being conducted at UTM on the subject of timber-concrete composite structural members. The purpose of this preliminary test was to establish the effectiveness of various types of shear connectors. The types of shear connectors investigated were nails, iron pipes and steel studs. It was found that steel studs were the most rigid connectors and nails were the weakest.The test results indicmed that composite construction of timber-concrete has potential to be applied in Malaysia, especially for the construction of houses and rural bridges.
