Composite Steel Truss
Composite Steel Truss
(OP)
Has anyone ever seen/heard of a composite steel truss? To clarify, I mean that the stringers/floorbeams would be composite w/ a concrete deck that is placed on top. I'm wondering if this has ever been done.
RE: Composite Steel Truss
As far as floor beams go, I think it's more economical and easier for erection to run the stringers over the floorbeams.

As to high trusses, this has little effect on the overall truss behavior.
Pony trusses and deck trusses this is probably very helpful.
