In the negative flexure regions, shear connectors shall be provided where the
longitudinal reinforcement is considered to be a part of the composite section.
Otherwise, shear connectors need not be provided in negative flexure regions, but
additional connectors shall be placed in the region of the points of permanent load
contraflexure.

The clear depth of concrete cover over the tops of the shear
connectors should not be less than 2.0 inches, and shear connectors
should penetrate at least 2.0 inches into the deck. Based on the
shear connector penetration information presented in Table 5-1, both
of these requirements are satisfied.

Therefore, using a pitch of 10 inches for each row, with three stud
shear connectors per row, throughout the entire length of the girder
satisfies both the fatigue limit state requirements of S6.10.7.4.1 and
S6.10.7.4.2 and the strength limit state requirements of S6.10.7.4.4.
Therefore, use a shear stud spacing as illustrated in the following
figure.
