New concept of composite steel-reinforced concrete floor slab

Iuav University of Venice – Italy

The innovation proposed aims to provide a slim floor system with a total thickness of 282mm with higher mechanical resistance than a comparable conventional slim floor assembly, by strengthening the composite behavior of the steel-concrete bond thanks to rebars that work as shear studs, blocking the differential slip of the concrete to steel connection.
