This paper summarizes a comprehensive experimental investigation of the behavior of steel-concrete connection of push out test specimens under static, monotonic and cyclic loading. The experiment involved testing of 8 push out test specimens with profiled steel sheeting highlighting the effects of different loading (static, monotonic and cyclic), concrete strength, welding method, stud diameter and stud length on shear capacity of headed studs. The capacities of shear connection obtained from the experimental tests were compared with the design strengths calculated using the American Specification, and European Code for headed stud shear connectors in composite slabs with profiled steel sheeting perpendicular to the steel beam. The normal concrete strength specimen had more flexibility and the studs failed at lower force than the high concrete strength specimen, which had more stiffness and the concrete crashed and studs did not fail at high force.
