COMPOSITE JOIST DESIGN
COMPOSITE JOIST DESIGN
(OP)
Hi,
I am looking for a reference about composte joist design. I know how to design composite beam (composite action between slab concrete and I-shaped beam with shear stud), but I am not sure that the same concept can be used in case of open-web steel joist. Any good references to read?
Thanks,
TENG

Please note, the manufacturer will not check the vibrational properties of the system. The design engineer should use the weight/depth information given in the manufacturer's literature and use the SJI vibrational design procedure to check the serviceability of the system. Often, a larger joist than suggested by the catalog will be required to satisfy vibrational requirements.
