About this detail

Metal deck bearing and attachment conditions over structural steel beams, including cast-in-place or expansion anchors supporting up to 600 or 1200 pound total loads with a minimum spacing of four feet on center. A contractor-provided spreader section is required when clearances are tight, alongside a continuous 14-gauge plate added when dimensions fall below a two-inch minimum. Deck attachment requires a minimum two-inch lap and follows general structural notes. Additional edge clearances of one and one-half inches and one and one-quarter inches govern the placement of deck connections relative to the beam flange.
