Is there a specific standard for testing the capacity of shear studs used in composite beams? An engineer in our office suggested hitting the studs with a sledge hammer. Is that an acceptable method of testing?

If studs start failing - a larger percentage is then bent.

I don't have a copy of AWS D1.1. What does it specify?
