Push test database of headed stud connectors embedded in solid concrete slabs

This database contains the results of 242 push tests on headed stud shear connectors embedded in solid concrete slabs. The database was used in the reliability analyses presented in the following paper that was published within the Journal of Constructional Steel Research (JCSR) doi.org/10.1016/j.jcsr.2017.09.018 The measured compressive strength of the concrete used in the push tests fcm is given in Column G, together with the concrete test specimen type (column H) size (column I) and the curing conditions (column J).

The corrected compression strength is given in Column L, with an explanation presented within Section 4.1.1 of of the JCSR paper. Where reported, the nominal properties are given in Column T to AA. For cases when the characteristic compressive strength of the concrete fck or the tensile strength of the stud material fu was not reported, an estimate was made using the methodology given within Section 4.1.1 and 4.1.3 of the JCSR paper.
