THIS IS PROJECT TITLE: Effect of shear stud diameter on load deflection in composite

steel deck with UHPC.

CHAPTER $1$ INTRODUCTION.

$1\mathrm{.}1$ Background

$1\mathrm{.}2$ Problem statement:

Write in paragraph. Describe the problem on the less diameter has higher tensile. If we use normal

concrete the tensile strength has also less tensile strength. So if using uhpc it has higher tensile

strength and can the composite enhances the overal performance

Rewrite in paragraph. Write about that normal concrete also weak in shear and its brittle.

replace with UHPC so that enhance the performance

Rewrite. $)$ there is lack of information on using UHPC and steel composite deck so needed more

investigation.

$1\mathrm{.}3$ Objectives:

To determine the optimal stud diameter that maximizes shear strength and minimizes material

usage in precast UHPC slabs.

To analyse the load$-$deflection behaviour of composite decks providing insights into the ductility

and deformation characteristics of the slab.
