abstract = "In the past few decades, demountable connectors have often been used for
connections in composite and mixed steel-concrete structures to reduce
construction time and costs. Furthermore, the application of demountable
connectors enables the reuse of structural elements in these structures, which leads
to sustainable design and a circular economy. In this paper, the demountable
connector is made out of two parts: (1) mechanical coupler and rebar anchor placed
in formwork before casting the concrete element, and (2) steel bolt used for
connecting steel to the RC element. Although this connector is increasingly being
used in contemporary building structures, its behaviour in composite connections is
still insufficiently defined. The paper presents the results of experimental tests and
numerical analysis of the connector with a mechanical coupler, focusing on the local
behaviour of the tapered threaded connection between the mechanical coupler and
rebar anchor.",
