Composite steel beam layout detailing headed shear stud placement and spacing configurations for metal deck spanning parallel to the supporting steel beam. Single, double, and triple stud rows are positioned on the beam flange relative to the beam and column centerline. Specified dimensions include a one-foot minimum from the first studs near the column, four-and-one-half-inch minimum spacings, and edge clearances of one-and-one-quarter inches. Additional configurations address narrow flanges less than six inches with multiple stud rows.
