.../methodology/approach The model was benchmarked using experimental test data, and it accounts for temperature-dependent material properties, force-slip-temperature relationship for the shear studs and concrete cracking. Findings It was determined that composite beams can be modeled with this sequentially...

The results of the experimental, numerical and analytical tests were compared with each other. The constructive solution for limiting fire...
