This paper assesses the structural performance (force-slip response, slip modulus, and failure modes) of a CLT-concrete composite by conducting fifteen push-out test specimens. In addition, non-linear 3D finite element analysis was also developed to simulate the load-slip behavior of the CLT-concrete specimens under shear load. All 15 test specimens simulating the effect of concrete thickness, connection angle and penetration depth with four different shear connector types were built and tested to evaluate the flexural performance. Experimental results show that the maximum shear capacity for the composite action is obtained when the fixing angle is 90° and the penetration depth of 95mm for SC normal screw was used to achieve ductile failure compared to other shear connectors.

The purpose of this study is to develop structral technologies on the lightweight composite slab systems with sound reduction layers in the modular house. In this study, two kinds of slabs with minimum thickness was suggested reducing the floor impact sound. In order to evaluate the structural performance, the flexural strenth tests were carried out on the one-way full scale specimens. From the results of test, we know that the proposed slabs had ductile behavior and would be safe sufficiently.
