AI Technical Summary
In the calculation of shear stiffness of existing short-pin nail connectors, the aspect ratio hs/d usually does not meet the requirements of ≥2.1, and cannot be used for the reinforcement design of old orthogonal opposite-sex steel bridge panels, and the calculation method cannot effectively consider the displacement of nail rods and nail caps.
The three-dimensional finite element model is used to establish the assembly of steel beams, concrete slabs, loading steel plates and short bolts. Through the fitting of displacement paths and flexural equations, the deformation energy of short bolts and concrete slabs is calculated by combining the energy method, and then the shear stiffness of short bolts is calculated.
This method can more accurately calculate the shear stiffness of the short stud joint, take into account the displacement of the nail rod and the nail cap, and is suitable for the reinforcement design of old bridge decks, improving the safety and economical structure.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to bridge engineering technology, and in particular is a method for calculating the shear stiffness of a concrete-short bolt connector. Background Art
[0002] In the existing calculation of shear stiffness of short stud connectors, the applicable condition for short studs is that the aspect ratio h s / d≥2.1, where h s is the length of the short stud rod, d is the diameter of the short stud, that is, it is considered that during the deformation of the short stud, only the rod part undergoes vertical deformation, and the deformation gradually decreases along the direction of the rod, and the nail cap does not participate in the deformation. This type of short stud has a large aspect ratio and is only suitable for newly built ultra-high performance concrete-orthotropic steel bridge deck composite beams. When ultra-high performance concrete is used to reinforce old orthotropic steel bridge decks, the welding spacing of the short studs should not be too dense to reduce the impact of welding residual stress on the old bridge deck. At the same time, the ultra-high performance concrete pavement layer should not be too thick to reduce the self-weight of the bridge. In order to meet the shear connection degree of the composite bridge deck, short studs with a small aspect ratio are required to connect the ultra-high performance concrete pavement layer and the orthotropic steel bridge deck. Their aspect ratio usually cannot meet h. s / d≥2.1, the existing shear stiffness calculation method cannot be used for analysis. Summary of the invention

[0004] In the above step S1, the method of defining the constraint conditions is: applying symmetrical displacement constraints to the xy plane and yz plane of the model respectively, applying a fixed constraint to the bottom surface, and loading a displacement load of 0.2 mm on the top surface of the loading steel plate.
[0005] The deflection curve equation ω(x) in the above step S3 is linearly fitted, and the formula is: ; Where h is the total length of the bolt and δ is the relative slip value at the root of the bolt.
