Full Name
ICC-ES AC395 – Acceptance Criteria for Headed Shear Stud Reinforcement Assemblies for Concrete Slabs or Footings
Scope
ICC-ES AC395 outlines the acceptance criteria for headed shear stud reinforcement assemblies used in concrete slabs or footings. It covers various aspects of product performance, including:
- Strength and load capacity: evaluates the assembly’s ability to resist shear forces between the concrete slab and the supporting steel member.
- Durability: assesses the assembly’s resistance to corrosion, fatigue, and other environmental factors.
- Compatibility: ensures the assembly is compatible with the concrete slab, steel member, and other building materials.
- Installation: provides guidelines for the proper installation and use of the shear stud assembly.
The purpose of AC395 is to provide a standardized framework for evaluating headed shear stud reinforcement assemblies, ensuring they meet the minimum requirements for safety and performance in transferring shear forces in concrete slabs or footings.
