Which risk increases in highway overpass beams lacking sufficient composite action between steel and concrete?

💡 Explanation

Insufficient composite action concentrates shear stress onto connectors, thereby increasing the likelihood of premature shear connector failure because the load transfer mechanism is compromised; therefore, connector failure rises rather than an improved torsional rigidity or concrete property shift.
