About this detail

These details show composite floor framing conditions with concrete poured over metal floor deck supported by a steel beam. Shear studs or headed shear anchors weld through the deck into the top flange of the steel beam, sized and spaced according to structural plans. Additional reinforcing bars measuring #4 by seven feet long are placed at sixteen inches on center on all beams framing into columns, with alternate bar ends staggered twelve inches. Metal gauge closures are installed at girders with recommended metal thickness determined by the gap dimension up to nine inches maximum.
