| Abstract | ||
| This research includes a theoretical investigation about the behaviour of simply supported composite slim floor beams with partial interaction. For the purpose of analysis, the slim floor slab system is simplified to a multi-layered composite beam. The slim floor beam is embedded in concrete. Therefore, the layers of the slim floor are connected together by natural shear bond generated between the steel and concrete and distributed uniformly along the interface without using shear connectors. Linear behaviour with one degree of freedom of the slim floor (slip only) without separation is studied according to Johnson and May approach using different material properties and different types of loading. Equilibrium and compatibility are satisfied for the forces and displacements at an assumed element to arrive at two differential equations of second-order in terms of slip and axial force. The equations are solved numerically using the finite difference method. A computer program is written in Visual Basic language to solve the problem. The current model is applied to three typical simply supported slim floor beams tested experimentally by “Corus Construction Center”. The model showed close prediction with the observed results. | ||
