Steel-concrete composite structures have been widely used in developed countries such as various countries. China's composite structures started relatively late, but since the reform and opening up, such structures have been studied extensively.  The role of shear connectors is to prevent the horizontal sliding and separation of the two at the interface, so that steel structures and concrete structures with very different elastic moduli form a whole and work together.  The ideal design of shear connectors should provide sufficient and complete combined action for the structure and focus on testing the shear resistance of channel steel shear connectors of reinforced concrete slabs under monotonic loading.  The types of shear connectors in steel-concrete composite structures are further studied.Based on the measured data, based on the existing common shear connectors, the type, function and design requirements of the shear connectors can be divided into the linearity before the external load reaches the yield bearing capacity. The stage, the load is increased from the yield bearing capacity to the plastic phase of the ultimate bearing capacity and the failure phase.
