About this detail

These structural details illustrate composite floor beam and slab configurations for steel framing systems. Concrete over metal floor deck bears on steel beams with shear studs sized and spaced per plan. Reinforcement includes continuous mesh support bars over interior grid beams and purlins, alongside specific reinforcing bars centered on beams or running parallel to raised deck flutes. Construction joints in the concrete floor slab incorporate continuous reinforcing bars and transverse bars spaced eighteen inches on center. Where required, deck flutes aligned with steel beams are removed and girder fillers are provided by the deck supplier.
