Composite steel framing details illustrate headed shear stud placement for metal decks spanning parallel to steel beams. The configurations show varying numbers of stud rows including one, two, and three stud rows, along with multiple rows for narrow flanges less than six inches. Clear spatial dimensions specify minimum edge distances, transverse spacings of three inches, and longitudinal spacings of four and one-half inches. The first studs near columns maintain a minimum one-foot-zero-inch clearance from the beam and column centerline.
