Glued Timber-Concrete Beams - Analytical and Numerical Models for Assesment of Composite Action

An analysis of glued composite timber-concrete systems is presented. Experimental data obtained from laboratory tests under short-term loading are compared with the analytical calculation and the design procedure for fully composite beams given in the EN 1995-1-1 standard. Numerical linear 2D finite element modelling and an analytical solution assuming linear elastic behaviour of glue and the interlayer slip are also conducted and validated. The effect of composite action in the three mentioned approaches is assessed by comparison of midspan deflections. In this way, a parametric study of the glue-line properties and the interlayer slip stiffness on load-carrying capacity and serviceability of glued composite beams exposed to short-time loading is easily performed.
