Features: This book summarizes a series of research results on steel-concrete composite beams, including their mechanical properties, design theories, and design methods, and introduces some engineering examples. The research content introduced in the book includes the load-bearing capacity and deformation calculation of simply supported composite beams, the shear and torsional performance of composite beams, the performance of continuous composite beams and prestressed composite beams, the performance of composite beams with openings in the concrete slab, the performance and design methods of shear connectors, the fatigue performance and seismic performance of composite beams, as well as the performance of high-strength concrete composite beams. This book focuses on describing experimental results and elaborating on the mechanical behavior and design methods of composite beams. It can serve as a reference for a broad range of science and technology workers and design personnel engaged in civil engineering, as well as a learning reference for graduate and undergraduate students.
