 Summary:
 This study introduces an innovative steel-timber composite connector designed to optimize structural performance. The connector is made for maximal composite action with a focus on stiffness and ductility, making it suitable for versatile structures. Adopting rigid plastic characteristics, the connector proved to be capable to fulfil complex structural demands, especially regarding strength and flexibility. The research provides a broader insight into the behaviour of the composite structures, giving a theoretical foundation for engineers and researchers. This study can be a base for future development of steel-timber composite connectors in structural engineering applications.
