Abstract

As an ANSI accredited standards developer, the Steel Deck Institute (SDI) has developed an updated and expanded version of its “Standard for Composite Steel Floor Deck-Slabs”, ANSI/SDI C-2011 and a new standard, “Test Standard for Composite Steel Deck-Slabs”, ANSI/SDI T-CD-2011. These two standards reflect the current state-of-the-art for the design and testing of composite steel deck-slabs where the steel deck provides the tensile reinforcement for the slab. Substantial changes in the ANSI/SDI-C-2011 Standard include increased information regarding the use of fibers for concrete crack control purposes and concrete serviceability, consideration of moving and concentrated loads, and use of updated shear bond provisions and “pre-qualified sections.” The new ANSI/SDI-T-CD-2011 standard includes multiple methods for validating the flexural capacity of composite deck-slabs through. This paper will discuss the substantial changes from the earlier ANSI/SDI-C1.0-2006 Standard.

Steel Deck Institute Standards for Composite Steel Floor Deck-slabs

As an ANSI accredited standards developer, the Steel Deck Institute (SDI) has developed an updated and expanded version of its “Standard for Composite Steel Floor Deck-Slabs”, ANSI/SDI C-2011 and a new standard, “Test Standard for Composite Steel Deck-Slabs”, ANSI/SDI T-CD-2011.

Substantial changes in the ANSI/SDI-C-2011 Standard include increased information regarding the use of fibers for concrete crack control purposes and concrete serviceability, consideration of moving and concentrated loads, and use of updated shear bond provisions and “pre-qualified sections.” The new ANSI/SDI-T-CD-2011 standard includes multiple methods for validating the flexural capacity of composite deck-slabs through.
