3 Course Description Timber-concrete composite floor technology is catching on in North America as a high-performance solution for long spans in commercial and industrial buildings. Comprised of timber beams or panels that are joined to a concrete slab by shear connectors, the resulting composite floor can be stiffer and stronger than non-composite alternatives. This presentation will provide an overview of the evolution of shear connectors for these floor systems, discuss best practices and design guidelines for some of the more prevalent connectors, and present a case study of the new Design Building at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, which features what is currently North America s largest application of this technology.

4 Learning Objectives 1. Define timber-concrete composite floor systems and highlight their use in modern mass timber buildings. 2. Review the structural design principles and processes associated with timber-concrete composite floor systems. 3. Demonstrate a variety of available composite floor shear connectors and discuss design methods. 4. Highlight the use of timber-concrete composite floors in the University of Massachusetts Design Building, including research done to aid its implementation.
