PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF STEEL CONCRETE COMPOSITE SECTION

In present work, an attempt is made to investigate the behavior and design of composite members used in composite sections for different configurations under the load. The main purpose of this research work is to analyses the structural performance of steel – concrete Composite sections, comparative analysis of the steel – concrete composite section and RCC members under flexural performance. The finite element method (FEM) is the most popular simulation method to predict the physical behavior of systems and structures. This work is intended to show a summary of ANSYS capabilities to obtain results of finite element analyses as accurate as possible. The target of this research is to demonstrate a better analytical understanding of double steel-concrete composite beams. Thereby, the focus should be set on the performance analysis of existing composite section with composite action. Therefore, the principal purpose is the nonlinear finite element analysis of steel-concrete composite beams containing double composite action and head studs shear connectors.
