1 ANALYSIS OF COMPOSITE CONCRETE SLAB ON METAL DECK Assignment #5 Select a Vulcraft composite deck to support 150 psf service live load on a 10 ft clear span. The steel deck is to be used on a three-span condition and shoring is not permitted. Use normal weight concrete with f'c = 3000 psi Selected Deck: VLI17 - Note: If you used a different deck, use mathcad sheet to enter your information and check answer. Allowable Live Load given in table on pg 46 = 157 psf. This is greater than the specified 150 psf The construction clear span for a 3-span condition is 13'-0" which is greater than the specified 10 ft. Deck is OK Properties : D:= 4 in t := in W1 := 39 psf L := 10 ft S p := in^3 / ft S n := in^3/ft I p := in^4/ft I n := in^4/ft Fy := 40 ksi Fb allow := 0.6 Fy Fb allow = 4 ksi or 36 ksi (whichever is less) #1) Check construction SDI criteria for the steel deck selected Define loads W1 = slab weight + deck weight W1 = 39 psf Chart on pg 46 W = 0 psf construction load W := 0 psf Sec 3.a P1 = 150 lb concentrated load P1 := 150lb Sec 3.a For the 3-span Stress check- 3 cases on page 56 Case 1 positive moment M1 := ( 0.0 P1 L) W1 L M1 = lb*ft Positive Moment Stress M1 1 fb 1 := fb S p = ksi fb 1 = ksi < Fb allow = 4 ksi OK Case positive moment M := ( W1 + W) L M = lb*ft Positive Moment Stress M 1 fb := fb S p 1000 = 11.3 ksi 1
