shear flow - two RC elements tied together
(OP)
how do you determine the shear flow in order to determine the fixing requirements if connecting two reinforced concrete elements together in order that they act compositly?

What code are you designing to? Is one of your elements precast?

1. Find Mn of your composite beam section;
2. The total nominal shear capacity Pn required to be designed along half length of beam between two beam surface can be conservatively estimated as: Vn = Mn/H.
3. Assume you are going to use the shear studs with epoxy and assume that the shear capacity of each stud is Sn. Then the total number of studs required for your entire beam length is N = 2Vn/Sn.
4. I assume you know how to determine the stud spacing and # of rows using L and beam width.
