About this detail

Framing requirements for openings in a composite metal deck supported by steel beams and channel sections below the deck are provided. Openings located within three inches of the supporting steel framing do not require additional framing members. Channel sections designated as C12x20.7 are placed below the deck to reinforce openings where required, with specific clearances ranging from zero to three inches. The metal deck features alternating high and low flutes spanning perpendicular to the supporting steel beams. Additional channel connections are referenced to detail five on sheet S-5051.
