Eurocode 4 - Design of composite steel and concrete structures - Part 1-102: Composite dowels

Scope

1.1 Scope of CEN/TS 1994-1-102
(1) This document gives design rules for composite dowels as shear connectors for composite members. It provides general rules for composite dowels in different shapes and specific rules for specifically shaped composite dowels.
(2) Shear connection by composite dowels consists of regular spaced steel connectors with concrete dowels in between. The steel connectors of composite dowels are cut from hot-rolled steel plates, sections or bars, and encased in reinforced concrete to achieve composite action between the steel part and the concrete part of the composite member.
(3) The composite member can be used in civil engineering construction under static, quasi-static and dynamic loads. It can be used in both hogging and sagging moment regions and also under hogging and sagging transverse bending.
NOTE Figure 1.1 provides typical shapes of composite dowels.
