At present, shear studs are widely used in various steel structure buildings, high-rise buildings, industrial plants, and other projects. Shear studs are the core components that connect concrete and steel structures and play an important role in buildings.
Shear studs are currently made of carbon steel, which maintains high strength performance without burdening the substrate. There are many choices for the size of shear studs, and customers can choose the appropriate size according to their actual needs to meet different application scenarios.
The wide application of shear studs
In high-rise buildings, shear studs are welded to the surface of steel sections, significantly improving the bond strength between steel columns and concrete, and avoiding structural damage caused by local stress concentration. Research shows that properly arranged shear studs can increase the shear bearing capacity of load-bearing columns by more than 20%. As a core connector, shear studs can enhance the load-bearing capacity of concrete-encased steel and ensure the safety of high-rise buildings.
In large-span bridges, the arrangement of shear studs directly affects structural safety. During construction, the distribution density of shear studs was optimized through finite element simulation, successfully solving the stress concentration problem caused by sudden stiffness changes in the wet joint area. The steel-concrete composite box girder of the bridge is designed with shear studs to control the deformation of the bridge deck at the millimeter level, meeting the stringent requirements of high-speed railways.
Advantages of shear studs
1. Superior connectivity performance:
Shear studs can effectively transmit interfacial shear forces, resist horizontal shear forces, ensure the coordinated work of steel and concrete materials, and improve the overall integrity and stability of the structure. In contrast, other connecting materials may not be able to achieve the level of shear studs in terms of shear resistance, resulting in insufficient strength of the connection between steel and concrete, which affects the safety of the structure.
2. Simple welding process:
Shear studs are mainly welded using specialized stud welding machines for arc stud welding, with diverse construction sites and relatively simple processes. Compared with other complex connection methods, it does not require extensive on-site processing and assembly, which can save construction time and labor costs.
3. Reduce post-maintenance costs:
Due to the reliable connection performance of shear studs, the long-term stability of the structure can be ensured, reducing the need for post maintenance and repair work caused by problems at the connection points, thereby reducing the overall maintenance cost of the project.
4. High construction efficiency
Compared with the traditional steel bar binding process, which has a faster construction speed and higher accuracy. By standardizing shear nail connections, the construction period can be shortened by more than 20% while reducing wood consumption, which is both environmentally friendly and economical.
