shear studs elongation requirements.
shear studs elongation requirements.
(OP)
i designed a composite floor system using ASTM A29 shear studs, the procurement division bought S235j2 + c450, now the Fu and Fy is ok but i am concerned about the elongation ,
In the AWS table 7.1 there is 2 requirements for the elongation 1- % in 2 min 20 %
2- % on 5x dia min 15%
in the MTC provided by the manufacturer there is only value for the elongation which is 15.2, should i compare this value to 20% or 15%.
