Szukana fraza: [Abstract = "The presence of shear connectors in the tension zone prevents the formation of cracks which are the major cause of failure in a beam subjected to bending. The load carrying capacity is greater in a composite beam and an increase in the number of channel connectors from one to five increases the load\-carrying capacity by 60% as compared to a specimen without a connector. A composite beam with five connectors is more ductile, with a ductility factor of 14. The Composite beams were also analysed using the finite element software ANSYS and were found to have good agreement with the experimental results."]
