Shear connector studs, typically made from high-strength steel, are installed vertically in the composite section before the concrete is poured. They serve as a mechanical link, facilitating the transfer of shear and tensile forces between the steel and concrete components. This connection is crucial, especially in structures subjected to dynamic loads such as earthquakes or high winds, where the ability to resist shear forces is paramount.
