| Abstract: | Mid- to high-rise mass timber buildings gained popularity in the last decade. Yet, engineered wood products (EWPs) used to erect these buildings have structural limitations. EWPs present brittle failure modes, particularly in bending, shear and tension, and have a low modulus of elasticity resulting in shorted spans and deeper beams relative to those in the steel and reinforced concrete counterparts. Timber-steel hybrid beams represent a potential sustainable solution to overcome these limitations by taking advantages of the high strength, stiffness and ductility of steel, and the high capacity to weight ratio of timber. However, for this solution to be structurally performant, it is essential to create effective composite action between the two materials. This study therefore compares the structural efficiency of various bonding techniques between the steel and the timber materials. Two sets of assembly solutions, representing four connection types, were proposed and experimentally investigated: (1) connecting an embedded steel plate into the timber elements by using either polyurethane (PUR) structural adhesive with two manufacturing variations or 14 G×75 mm heavy duty screws, and (2) connecting a steel plate on the surface of the timber element using either PUR structural adhesive with self-tapping M4×40 mm screws or only self-tapping screws. Softwood Laminated Veneer Lumbers (LVL) and Grade 350 steel plates were used in the experimental tests. All bonding techniques were tested in shear. The shear capacity, the slip stiffness and the failure mode were evaluated. Additionally, the efficiency of the proposed manufacturing solutions was quantified by analytically evaluate the effective bending stiffness of a timber-steel composite beam manufactured with different bonding techniques being investigated. Results indicated that the glued connections allowed a significantly more efficient composite action, with failure occurring in the timber instead of at the composite interface and near-full composite action was reached, than the screwed connections. To achieve high composite action with the screwed solutions, a large number of screws was needed which may incur high manufacturing costs. • An investigation to develop composite action between steel and timber is presented. • Different manufacturing solutions to bond the steel to timber are investigated. • Bonds consisted of combinations of PUR structural adhesive and screws. • PUR bonds enabled full composite action with failure developing in timber. • A large number of screws is needed to develop full composite action.
