Resumen

Superposed perfobond connectors are a type of connector used in composite structures. When the construction conditions are limited to increase the diameter of the opening, the shear capacity of the connector can be improved by enhancing the confining effect of the concrete dowel. In this study, 12 superposed perfobond connectors were fabricated to investigate the influence of lateral constraints on their shear behavior. The effects of hole area and holes? number, diameter of the perforating rebar, concrete compressive strength, and the number of transverse reinforcements were investigated via the failure modes and load?slip curves. The results indicate that double-sided shear failure occurs in connectors with perfobond rib thicknesses exceeding 9 mm, and the connectors featuring strong lateral constraints not only exhibited higher bearing capacities but also superior load-holding capacities after peak load. Finally, an equation for the shear capacity of multi-hole perfobond connectors, considering lateral constraints, was proposed according to the double-sided shear theory.
