To obtain calculated method of timber-concrete composite beams in elastic bending deformation stage,based on reduction stiffness method of the steel-concrete composite beams,the calculated method of modified reduction stiffness method applied to timber-concrete composite beams was presented and was verified with experimental results,as well as compared with reduction stiffness method of steel-concrete composite beams. The results shows that compared with reduction stiffness method of the steel-concrete composite beams,the proposed modified reduction stiffness method is more accurate and can mo...
