stud bolt gun
(OP)
i am not so familiar with composite beam-metal deck slab details.
how do i call out a stud bolt to punch thru a metal deck using a stud bolt gun then field welded to connecting beam?
i want to make sure stud bolt is not shop welded to steel beam but field welded using a stud bolt gun.
also is stud bolt gun strong enough to punch thru a metal deck of any thickness?

i am trying to avoid shop welded shear connectors as it would prevent the metal deck to be continuous.

These links assume you are allowing for the studs to be welded in this manner. What Vulcraft was referring to would be these welding machines.

Seems like a pretty good spec/note by RacingAZ.

do i have to specify holes in the deck? or the "gun" would punch holes through the deck?

If you can stand the music this video shows welding through deck: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nMF7V1tB3k
This is standard stuff - the way hundreds of thousands of SF of composite floor have been constructed. I do not think I have ever seen someone on a large composite floor fillet welding studs to beams.
