What is Shear Connection Rules in SCI P405 about?

The document discusses new rules in SCI P405 that allow for a lower minimum degree of shear connection in composite beams compared to Eurocode standards. P405 accounts for factors like beam utilization and loading levels. This means many previously non-compliant designs can now be verified. However, an absolute limit is still needed to prevent shear stud plastic deformation under service loads. P405 also provides guidance for adjusting beam stiffness calculations when fewer studs are used.
