0.6 conform deck as diaphragm - ER report

0.6 conform deck as diaphragm - ER report

0.6 conform deck as diaphragm - ER report

(OP)
Is there a 0.6 conform deck that has diaphragm shear values that complies with an ICBO/ER report?  The deck is designed as a rigid diaphragm using concrete on top of the metal deck.  Vulcraft has design tables but no ICBO reference.

RE: 0.6 conform deck as diaphragm - ER report

I do not think you will find any data on the deck by itself. However, if you have concrete placed on it, then you will have rigid diaphragm.

My SDI manual is at the office and I will look it up.

RE: 0.6 conform deck as diaphragm - ER report

if you're asking for the "bare" deck, SDI manual has diaphram values for no fill.

I am specifically looking for design values with a concrete deck

RE: 0.6 conform deck as diaphragm - ER report

I'm not aware of any ICBO/ER reports available for form decks less than 1 1/2" deep.  I couldn't find any on the ICC/ER website.  Sorry.
