| Abstract | ||||
| This paper presents the numerical study to simulate the behavior of cold-formed bi-steel-concrete beams using ANSYS program. The study was carried out on fifteen beams having six steel plate shapes of 10mm thickness tested experimentally by Ahmed [1]. The composite action between steel and concrete was insured using steel connectors in form of nails fixed through drilled holes in steel plate by means of epoxy. The main parameters considered in this analysis were the steel plate’s shape and the position of the connectors. Also this study was extended to study some parameters didn’t take into account experimentally such as the effect of concrete strength and nail diameter | ||||
