3.1 Introduction
Composite slabs are structural plates made ofsteel profiled sheeting and reinforcedconcrete. (The sheeting is very thin foreconomic reasons, usually between 0.8 mmand 1.2 mm).
During construction the permanent steel
formwork serves as a working platform, andafter the concrete has hardened as bottomreinforcement for the slab

3.2 Design of composite slab
Area of the steel sheeting that is neededfor the construction phase often providesmore than enoughbottom reinforcement
for the composite slab. It is usual to design the slabs as simplysupported
The concrete is continuous over thesupporting beams, so are also thealternate sheets(sheets are typically 1mwide up to 6m long)

7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3

The simply supported "slabs require toplongitudinal reinforcement at their supports, tocontrol crack widths
EC4 specifies 0.2% of the concrete area abovethe steel ribs for unpropped construction and0.4% for propped construction
Long span slabs are sometimes designed as
continuous To avoid local buckling, the breadth/thickness
ratio does not exceed 35.

3.3 Resistance of composite slabs to positive
bending
The total depth htis required by EC4 nottobe less than 80 mm, and the toppingnot lessthan 40 mm
Normally the topping is 60 mm thick or more,to provide sufficient sound or fire insulation,
and resistance to concentrated loads

Except where the sheeting is unusually deep,the NA liesin the concretewhere there is fullinteraction
For partial interaction there is always NAwithin the steel section
Local buckling of compressed sheeting hasto be considered
6
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3

This is done by using effective widths of flatregions of sheeting which are allowed to beup to twice the limits given for class 1steelweb plates in beams, because the concrete
prevents the sheeting from buckling
The effective area per meter width, Ap, and
the height of the center of area, e, are usuallybased on tests. These usually show that ep,the height of the PNA, is different from e.

Because local buckling is allowed in this way, thebending resistance can be calculated by simpleplastic theory.

There are three casesi) Neutral axis above the sheeting and full
shear connection
The compressive force in the concrete
component, Ncf, is equal to the axial loadcapacity of the steel component, Npa
Horizontal equilibrium for pure bending
Ncf= Npa= Apfyp/px= Ncf/(b(0.85fck/c))
MP,Rd= Ncf(dp0.5x)
Where fyp= the characteristic yield strength of the sheeting
MP,Rd The design resistance to bending, x=NA depth 10

ii) Neutral axis within the sheeting, and full
shear connection
Now the axial load capacity of the steelcomponent N
pa
is greater than the capacity ofthe concrete, and neglecting the compressionin the concrete within the ribs, Ncfis given by:
Ncf= bhc(0.85fck/c) . . . (f stands for full interaction)
There is no simple method of calculating x,because of the complex properties of profiledsheeting
11
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
12/57
the following approximate method is usedin EC4
The tensile force in the sheeting isdecomposedinto a force at the bottom equalto Nac(the compressive force in the sheeting)and a force Na, where the following criteria issatisfied:
Na= Ncf
12
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
13/57
The equal and opposite forces Nacprovide aresistance moment Mpr, equal to the plasticmoment resistance for the sheeting Mpa,reducedby the effect of the axial force Na.
the value represented by the symbol NC,fdepends on the ratio x/hc.
The relationship Mpr
/Mpa
and Ncf
/Npa
dependson the profile, but is typically as shown by thedashed line ABC in figure.

7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3

14
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3

This is approximated in EC4 by the equation:Mpr=1.25Mpa(1-Ncf/Npa)Mpa
which is shown by as ADC
Thus, the resistance moment is then given by:
Mp,Rd= Ncfz + Mpr (see previous figure)
Check the two points E and F for validity of theextreme cases:
The lowest level that the NA can reach is thecentroidal axis, because NA below that requirestension in the concrete for horizontal equilibrium.
15
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
16/57
Now investigate the situation as the NA enters theprofile
Point F corresponds to the beginning where theNA is at the interface at the top of the sheeting
here, Ncf= NpaNac= 0 Mpr= 0 The design moment resistance
MpR,d= Ncf(dp0.5x) with x =hc The lever arm z is found by the approximation
shown by line EF.
z = dp0.5hc= ht e 0.5hcas given by point F.
16
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
17/57
To check point E, we assume that Ncfis nearlyzero (e.g. if the concrete is too weak) Na0and MprMpa
The NA for Mpaalone is at the height epfromthe bottom of the sheet, and the lever arm is:
z = ht e 0.5hcas given by point F.
This method has been validated by tests
The line EF is given by: z = ht 0.5hcep=(epe)Ncf/Npa

iii) Partial shear connection
The compression force in the slab, Nc, is nowless than the compressive strength of theslab, as is the tensile force Naless than Npa.
The forces Nc, and Npaare determined by thestrength of the shear connection
The NA depth x in the concrete component is
determined by: x = Nc/(b(0.85fck/c)
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3

There is a second NA within the steelsheeting, and the stress blocks are as shownin the previous figure.
The calculation of MpR,dis as for method (ii),except that Ncfis replaced by Nc, Npaby Ncf,and hcby x, so that:
z = ht 0.5x ep+(epe)Nc/Npa Mpr=1.25Mpa(1-Nc/Ncf)Mpa
Mp,Rd= Ncz + Mpr

3.4 Resistance of composite slabs to
longitudinal shear
For profiled sheeting that relies on frictionalinterlock to transmit longitudinal shear, thereis no satisfactory conceptual model.
This led to the development of the shear-bond test, and the empirical m-k method of
design where the shear resistanceis given bythe EC4 equation:
20
Vl,Rd= bdp(mAp/bLs+k)/vs (refer chapter 2)
Where m and k are constants

21
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
22/57
Defects of the m-k method (i)The m-k method is not based on a
mechanical model, so that conservativeassumptions have to be made in design when
the dimensions, materials, or loading differfrom those used in the tests (e.g. calculationof Ls)
(ii) many additional tests are needed before
the range of application can be extended; fore.g., to include end anchorage or the use oflongitudinal reinforcing bars
22
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
23/57
(iii) The method of evaluation of test data isthe same, whether the failure is brittle orductile. The use in EC4 of a penalty factor of0.8 for brittle behavior does not adequately
represent the advantage of using sheetingwith good mechanical interlock, because thisincreases with span
23

Partial interaction
The method based on shear-bond testsaccording to Bode is described first
The method based on slip-block tests, takesmore specific account of the effects offriction near supports and can be moreeconomical for short spans
24
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3

For composite slabs of given x-sectionandmaterials, the result of each shear-bond teston a profile with ductile behavior enables thedegree of partial shear connectionin that test
to be calculated This gives the compressive force Nc

The ultimate uniformly distributed (assumed)shear stress uover the shear span Lscan then bedetermined from the following equation:

There is usually a mid-span region where fullshear connection is achieved, and Mp,Rdisindependent of x.
For safe design, this curve of Mp,Rdas a functionof x (the resistance diagram) must at all points lieabove the BMD for the applied loading.

3.5 Resistance of composite slabs to vertical
shear
Tests show that resistance to vertical shear isprovided mainly by the concrete ribs.
For open profiles, their effective width boistaken as the mean width, though the width atthe centroidal axis is accurate enough.
Design methods are based on those for in RCT-beams

EC4 gives the design shear resistance of acomposite slab, Vv,Rdwith ribs of effectivewidth boat spacing b as:
Vv,Rd=(bo/b)dpRdkv(1.2 + 40) per unit width
Where:
dp = the depth to the centroidal axis
Rd= the basic shear strength of the concrete
Rd = 0.25fctk0.05/c dpin m. allows for highershear strength of shallow
members.
30
Kv= (1.6 dp)
7/25/2019 Composite Structures Chap 3
31/57
Resistance to vertical shear is most likely tobe critical in design where span/depth ratiosare low, as is the case for beams.
Punching Shear
Where a thin composite slab has to bedesigned to resist point loads, resistance to
punching shear should be checked.

EC4 specifies that the deflection of thesheeting due its own weight and wetconcrete slab should not exceed L/180
or 20 mm, where L is the effectivespan. This span can be reduced to anydesired level by using propped
construction-but cost increases For service: the maximum deflectionshould not exceed L/250
