• Abstract:
  This study aimed to investigate the behavior of steel and concrete girder bridges with tall haunches and develop corresponding design guidelines. The research involved conducting push-out tests to assess the capacity and limit states that arise in the composite connection between bridge girders and concrete decks with tall haunches. Additionally, three-dimensional finite element models were developed to facilitate parametric studies, extending the range of scenarios.
