Bolted shear connectors are an important component to ensure that steel-concrete composite structures can work together. High-strength bolt shear connectors can replace traditional stud connectors because of their disassembly, good mechanical performance and fatigue resistance. It applied to steel-concrete composite structure. In order to study the influencing factors of the bearing capacity of high-strength bolted shear connectors, this paper uses ABAQUS finite element simulation software as a research tool to establish a reasonable finite element model to study the influence of bolt strength, bolt diameter and concrete strength on bolted shear connectors. Studies have shown that increasing the diameter, strength, and concrete strength of bolted connections can effectively increase the bolt’s shear capacity.
