- This paper presents the results of one of the few existing laboratory experiments on a long-spanning composite cellular beam. The research demonstrated that despite a very low degree of shear connection (well below design limit) the beam resisted more than 3 times the design working load. The research also closely examined aspects such as the deflection behaviour, slip and the effect of web openings on beam behaviour. The findings will have widespread impact and will be used for the upcoming revision of Eurocode 4. The data will also be invaluable to other researchers.
