New Shear Stud Provisions For Composite Beam Design

The 2005 American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) Specification for Structural Steel Buildings (AISC 2005) will contain significant changes to the shear connector provisions for composite beams. Current specification provisions use shear connector strength models that were developed in the 1960s and 1970s. The pending provisions incorporate the data base of test results used to develop the current provisions as well as test results conducted in the interim. The focus of this paper, and indeed the changes to the specification, is on welded headed shear studs.
