Abstract: Medium-span to long-span floor systems in residential and commercial construction have commonly used steel–concrete composite construction. These composite floor systems have become more structurally efficient with the use ...

Abstract: Steel buildings utilizing steel-concrete composite construction typically have large floor depths due to the concrete deck cast above wide-flange beams. Stay-in-place formwork is placed on the bottom flange to achieve ...

Abstract: The purpose of the presented research is to evaluate the potential future manufacturing of hot-rolled asymmetric I-beams (AIBs) for construction in building floor systems. This technical note presents some of the primary ...
