11 Multideck 50 Structural Steel Products 11 Introduction Multideck 50-V3 is a high performance, profiled, galvanised steel floor decking for use in the construction of composite floor slabs. The profile may also be used as a permanent shuttering. Multideck 50-V3 Floor Decking System As part of the Kingspan ethos of continuous product and service development, the Multideck 50 system has recently been subject to a number of design improvements that have significantly improved the capability of the product. As a consequence of the design improvements and an extension of the range of gauges available, the new Multideck 50-V3 provides enhanced performance criteria and the potential to deliver both design and economic benefits compared to the previous V2 system. Following extensive testing, which investigated the product performance at both construction and composite stages, new performance paradigms and load tables have been produced to allow designers to take advantage of the improvements. Multideck 50-V3 has the following attributes: 50mm Dovetail rib profile, maximising deck bond to concrete; Minimum slab depth of 100mm; Unpropped construction stage spans up to 4.4m; Gauge range available up to 1.20mm; Shear keys on flange and webs of ribs give class-leading load capacity; 1 hour fire performance with 100mm slab depth; Fire performance up to 4 hours; Acoustic robust solution. Key benefits to using the Multideck Floor System include: The larger range of Multideck gauge thicknesses allow closer matching of design requirements and deck performance, resulting in greater design efficiency. Eliminating the need for temporary props, under most conditions, Multideck 50-V3 offers quick and efficient installation. A wide range of accessories also allows for easy installation of ceilings and services. Our Technical Services Department also provides an engineering and advisory service to specifiers and end users on the use of the Multideck range of composite decks. The Multideck Toolkit design software includes comprehensive composite floor design which allows the user to easily select the right Multideck solution. The design software is available for download from the website: www. kingspanstructural.com Multideck 50 Multideck 60 Multideck 80 Multideck 146

14 14 Structural Steel Products Multideck 50 Load / Span Tables Load / Span Tables When using load / span tables, please consider the following notes: 1. The table shows the maximum span in metres of the Multideck product for the applied loads and slab depths shown. Values are shown for each gauge where the deck is single span or double span. 2. For confirmation of the maximum construction stage unpropped spans see page The span values are based on the use of a minimum 100mm bearing support. Where the bearing exceeds 100mm the span capacity can be increased. See Definition of Span diagram. 4. Deck must lie flat on all support beams. Point only contact will adversely affect the design loading, reducing the capacity below that shown in the tables. 5. The self-weight of the slab has been taken into account in the table and should not be included in the applied loading. 6. All tabulated span capacities include applied construction stage load of 1.5kN/m2 for spans equal to or greater than 3.0m. 7. The composite slab should meet the requirements of BS 5950: Part 4: 1994 with regard to their composite behaviour under normal loading. 8. The concrete grade is a minimum of C25/30 with a minimum cube strength of 30N/mm2. 9. Minimum reinforcement mesh sizes shown meet or exceed 0.1% gross cross sectional area of the concrete at the supports. Minimum reinforcement should be increased where: a) The slab is propped during construction; b) It is required to control the size of cracking in the concrete, i.e. where a brittle finish is applied to the slab; c) There are moving loads. Mesh reinforcement should be placed near the upper edge of the concrete slab in a zone of 15mm to 40mm from the top of the surface. Concrete cover to reinforcement should be increased where slab exposure dictates. 10. Fire resistance performance of the composite concrete Multideck 50-V3 slab is as documented and tabulated on pages 21 to Total applied load referred to in the table is a working load derived from the sum of the loads supported by the composite slab (live load, finishes, ceilings, services, partitions). Loads shown are based on the ultimate capacity divided by 1.6. The slab self-weight has already been taken into account, do not include in applied loads. 12. Deflection under construction loading (wet concrete etc) has been limited to that stipulated in BS 5950: Part 4: 1994 as 30mm or the span divided by 130, whichever is smaller. At the composite stage the suggested maximum ratio of slab span to slab depth is 35 for NWC and 30 for LWC to control deflection. 13. For the propped during construction cases, the temporary supports should remain in place until the concrete has achieved 75% of its 28 day cube strength (often available after 7 days) 14. Where more than one prop is provided they should be equally spaced across the span of the Multideck system. 15. The sound attenuation performance of the composite concrete Multideck 50-V3 slab is as documented and tabulated on page 31. Definition of Span (construction stage) when using Kingspan Load / Span Tables 100mm minimum Support c/c 100mm minimum Support Widths greater than 100mm? The span capacities shown on the following pages can be increased by the difference between the actual support widths and 100mm. The deck span (m) used in the table is based on: (support c/c support bearing) + the deck depth. All values are in metres. Example Support widths 140mm and 200mm. Span values can be increased by: ( )/2 100 = 70mm. Multideck 50-V3 1.2mm double span deck. 150mm thick slab normal weight concrete. Construction stage span: 4.0N/m2 load column = 3780mm. With support widths of 140 and 200 the increased span capacity is = 3850mm.

21 Multideck 50 Structural Steel Products 21 Fire Resistance Fire Performance Mesh 1. The fire resistance load / span tables for Multideck 50-V3 on the following pages are based upon fire test data from full scale tests performed at the Warrington Fire Research Centre UK, May The published load / span tables on the following pages provide values for fire performance up to 2 hours. The Multideck Toolkit design software should be used for extended fire periods of up to 4 hours or where the composite slab is single span. 3. The composite slab is assumed to be continuous over one or more intermediate supports, i.e. minimum double span. 4. The fire resistance load / span tables are for continuous spans only with no propping. For propped and single span conditions use the Multideck Toolkit design software or contact our Technical Services Department. 5. Minimum laps should be 300mm for A142 mesh and 400mm for A193 and A252 mesh. 6. The mesh should be placed between 15mm and 40mm from the upper surface of the slab (this range caters for lap areas). 7. The tables are based upon Grade 30 concrete, reinforcement having a yield strength of 460N/mm The fire resistance load / span tables must be read in conjunction with the standard load / span tables to verify the structural integrity of the composite slab. 9. The values in all load / span tables are relevant to unpropped construction. 10. The tables take into account the reduced partial factor of 0.8 as permitted in BS 5950: Part 8: 2003 for non-permanent imposed loads. The tables are presented in terms of total specified imposed load (non-permanent and permanent). It is assumed that the permanent imposed loads for partitions, finishes, ceilings and services are equivalent to 1.7kN/m 2 in all cases. The tables are therefore appropriate for office type applications. For other applications where the imposed loads are almost entirely permanent, the total load should be adjusted accordingly before reading from the tables, e.g: 150mm normal weight concrete plantroom slab and A142 mesh; 7.5kN/m 2 live load; 1.2kN/m 2 50mm screed finish 0.5kN/m 2 ceilings and services; 1 hour fire rating. Multideck 50-V3 profile Total applied load = /0.8 = kN/m 2. From table overleaf, maximum span = 3.60m. 11. The * denotes that the mesh provided, although satisfying the fire resistance requirement, does not comply with the minimum anti-crack reinforcement requirement of BS 5950: Part 4: Refer to standard load / span tables for minimum mesh requirements. 12. For load / span conditions beyond the scope of these tables, the Fire Engineering Method as detailed in the SCI Publication 056 should be adopted or use the Multideck Toolkit design software. Please contact our Technical Services Department for advice. 13. These tables apply to all gauges 0.85mm and above. Multideck 50 Multideck 60 Fire Performance Dramix Steel Fibre 1. Multideck 50-V3 can be used with Dramix Steel Fibre reinforcement as an alternative to conventional fire engineering using steel mesh (see fire resistance load / span tables on pages 22 through 30). 2. For more information on the use of Dramix Steel Fibre Concrete, please refer to pages 118 through 121 of the Multideck Technical Handbook P Dramix Steel Fibre reinforcement can only be used with Multideck 50-V3 in gauges 0.9mm, 1.0mm and 1.2mm.

Lightweight concrete may lead to a reduction in acoustic performance of about 2dB to 3dB on the values shown above. Values of DnT,w are available from our Technical Services Department. The junction details between the walls and floors must be appropriately detailed to ensure that flanking sound is minimised. The values in the table are based on the new (since 2003) measurement index DnT,w + Ctr for airborne sound. The Ctr term is a spectrum adaptation value which is generally negative and adjusts the index to take account of low frequency sounds that often cause problems in residential buildings. Thus the DnT,w + Ctr rating is lower than the DnT,w rating for the same construction.

33 Multideck 60 Structural Steel Products 33 Introduction The original and still the most popular deck in the market is a 60mm high, structurally efficient trapezoidal profile providing an excellent composite union between steel and concrete to maximise the load carrying capacity. Unpropped construction stage spans up to 4.7m can be achieved. Multideck 60 Floor Decking System The efficient shape of the deck and resulting composite slab make an excellent option for composite beam design. Key benefits include: Concrete Volume Savings Due to its unique profile Multideck 60-V2 requires less concrete than other decks to achieve any given slab thickness. Multideck 60-V2 can save up to 20% concrete volume compared with typical re-entrant profiles. Greater Design Efficiency The larger range of Multideck gauge thicknesses allow much closer matching of design requirements and deck performance. Kingspan Multideck 60-V2 can be used with Dramix Steel Fibre Reinforcem ent to eliminate mesh in slab design. Quicker Installation The Multideck range has a 1m cover width requiring fewer panels and sidelaps. No temporary supports are required under most conditions. A wide range of accessories allows for easy installation of ceilings and services. Technical Support Kingspan Toolkit software includes comprehensive composite floor design software which allows the user to easily select the right Multideck solution. The design software is available for download from the web site The Multideck design department provides a comprehensive engineering and advisory service to specifiers and end users on the use of the Multideck range of composite decks.

37 Multideck 60 Structural Steel Products 37 Load / Span Tables Load / Span Tables When using load tables for Multideck 60-V2 please take into consideration the following notes: 1 The table shows the maximum span in meters of the Multideck product for the applied loads and slab depths shown. Values are shown for each gauge where the deck is single span or double spans, plus values for propped spans during construction. 2 For confirmation of the maximum construction stage unpropped spans see page The span values are based on the use of a minimum 100mm bearing support. Where the bearing exceeds 100mm the span capacity can be increased. See example below. 4 Deck must lie flat on all supports beams. Point only contact will affect the design loading. 5 The self weight of the slab has been taken in to account in the table and should not be included in the applied loading. 6 All tabulated span capacities include applied construction stage load of 1.5kN/m2 for spans of 3.0m or larger. For spans less than 3.0m the construction load is 4.5/span(m) kn/m2. 7 The composite slab should meet the requirements of BS5950 Part with regard to their composite behaviour under normal loading. 8 The concrete grade is a minimum of C25/30 with a minimum ultimate strength is of 30N/mm2. 9 Minimum reinforcement mesh sizes shown meet or exceed 0.1% gross cross sectional area of the concrete at the supports. Minimum reinforcement should be increased where:- a) The slab is propped during construction. b) It is required to control the size of cracking in the concrete i.e. where a brittle finishes is applied to the slab. c) There are moving loads. Definition of Span (construction stage) when using Kingspan Load / Span Tables 100mm minimum Support c/c 100mm minimum Mesh reinforcement should be placed near the upper edge of the concrete slab in a zone of 15mm to 40mm from the top surface. Concrete cover to reinforcement should be increased where slab exposure dictates. 10 Where in the table the span value is shown in red this shows the maximum permissible span where there is a minimum of one stud per trough 11 Total applied load referred to in the table is a working load derived from the sum of the loads supported by the composite slab (live load, finishes, ceilings, services, partitions). Loads shown are based on Ultimate capacity / 1.6. The slab self weight has already been taken in to account do not include in applied loads. 12 Deflection under construction loading (wet concrete etc) has been limited to that stipulated in BS5950 Part At the composite stage the suggested maximum ratio of slab span to slab depth are 35 for NWC and 30 for LWC to control deflection. 13 For the propped during construction cases the temporary supports should remain in place until the concrete has achieved 75% of it 28 day cube strength often available after 7 days. 14 Where more than one prop is provided they should be equally spaced across the span of the Multideck. 15 Where appears the addition of props gives no further spanning benefit in these cases. Support widths greater than 100mm? The span capacities shown on the following pages can be increased by the difference between the actual support widths and 100mm. The deck span (m) used in the table is based on the (Support c/c support bearing) + the deck depth. All values in metres. Example Support widths 140mm and 200mm. Span values can be increased by ( )/2 100 = 70mm. MD60-V2 1.2mm double span deck (no props). 150mm thick slab normal weight concrete. Construction stage span: 4.0kN/m2 load column = 4000mm.

43 Multideck 60 Structural Steel Products 43 Fire Resistance Fire Performance Mesh 1 The fire resistance tables for Multideck 60-V2 on the following pages are based upon fire test data from full scale tests performed at the Warrington Fire Research Centre UK, April All stated slab depths comply with the minimum fire insulation criteria of BS 476: Part The composite slab is assumed to be continuous over one or more intermediate supports. i.e. minimum double span. 4 For 2 hour rated slabs the mesh noted within the End Span table should be continuous over the first internal support, with the mesh shown in the Internal Span table being applicable over the second internal support and subsequent spans. 5 Minimum laps should be 300mm for A142 mesh and 400mm for A193 and A252 mesh. 6 The mesh should be placed between 15 and 40mm from the upper surface of the slab (this range caters for lap areas). 7 The tables are based upon Grade 30 concrete, reinforcement having a yield strength of 460N/mm2. 8 The tables must be read in conjunction with load / span tables for Multideck 60-V2 to verify the structural integrity of the composite slab. 9 The values in all the tables are relevant to unpropped construction. For propped and single span conditions use the Kingspan Toolkit Software or contact Kingspan Technical Services. 10 The tables take into account the reduced partial factor of 0.8 as permitted in BS 5950: Part 8 for non-permanent imposed loads. The tables are presented in terms of total specified imposed load (non-permanent and permanent). It is assumed that the permanent imposed loads for partitions, finishes, ceilings and services are equivalent to 1.7kN/m2 in all cases. The tables are therefore appropriate for office type applications. For other applications where the imposed loads are almost entirely permanent the total load should be adjusted accordingly before reading from the tables, eg: 150mm normal weight concrete plantroom slab and A142 mesh; 7.5kN/m2 live load; 1.2kN/m2 50mm screed finish 0.5kn/m2 ceilings and services; 1 hour fire rating. Multideck 60-V2 profile Total applied load = /0.8 = kN/m2 From table overleaf maximum span = 3.14m 11 The * denotes that the mesh provided, although satisfying the fire resistance requirement, does not comply with the minimum anti-crack reinforcement requirement of BS 5950: Part 4. Refer to standard load / span tables for minimum mesh requirements. 12 For load / span conditions beyond the scope of these tables the Fire Engineering Method as detailed in the SCI Publication 056 should be adopted or use Kingspan Toolkit Software. Please contact our Technical Services Department for advice. See following pages for MD 60-V2 Fire Resistance Tables. 13 Multideck 60-V2 can be used with Dramix Steel Fibre Reinforcement as an alternative to conventional fire engineering using steel mesh (see pages 118 to 121).

62 62 Structural Steel Products Multideck 80 Fire Resistance Fire Performance Mesh 1 The fire resistance tables for Multideck 80-V2 on the following pages are based upon fire test data from full scale tests performed at the Warrington Fire Research Centre UK, April All stated slab depths comply with the minimum fire insulation criteria of BS 476: Part The composite slab is assumed to be continuous over one or more intermediate supports. i.e. minimum double span. 4 The fire resistance load tables are for continuous spans only with no propping. For 2 hour fire rating or propped and single span conditions use the Kingspan Toolkit Software or contact Kingspan Technical Services. 5 Minimum laps should be 300mm for A142 mesh and 400mm for A193 and A252 mesh. 6 The mesh should be placed between 15 and 40mm from the upper surface of the slab (this range caters for lap areas). 7 The tables are based upon Grade 30 concrete, reinforcement having a yield strength of 460N/mm2. 8 The tables must be read in conjunction with load / span tables for Multideck 80-V2 to verify the structural integrity of the composite slab. 9 The values in all the tables are relevant to unpropped construction. 10 The tables take into account the reduced partial factor of 0.8 as permitted in BS 5950: Part 8 for non-permanent imposed loads. The tables are presented in terms of total specified imposed load (non-permanent and permanent). It is assumed that the permanent imposed loads for partitions, finishes, ceilings and services are equivalent to 1.7kN/m2 in all cases. The tables are therefore appropriate for office type applications. For other applications where the imposed loads are almost entirely permanent the total load should be adjusted accordingly before reading from the tables, eg: 150mm normal weight concrete plantroom slab and A142 mesh. 7.5kN/m2 live load. 1.2kN/m2 50mm screed finish 0.5kN/m2 ceilings and services. 1 hour fire rating. Multideck 80-V2 profile Total applied load = /0.8 = kN/m2 From table opposite maximum span = 3.16m. 11 The * denotes that the mesh provided, although satisfying the fire resistance requirement, does not comply with the minimum anti-crack reinforcement requirement of BS 5950: Part 4. Refer to standard load / span tables for minimum mesh requirements. 12 For load / span conditions beyond the scope of these tables the Kingspan Toolkit Software should be used which includes the Fire Engineering Method as detailed in the SCI Publication 056. See following pages for Multideck 80-V2 Fire Resistance Tables. Note: For load / span conditions beyond the scope of these tables, the Kingspan Multideck design software should be used to check for a solution. Toolkit Design Software provides an accurate and detailed analysis and Kingspan encourages its use for all design checks.

Lightweight concrete may lead to a reduction in acoustic performance of about 2 to 3 db on the values shown above. Values of DnT,w and Lnw are available from Kingspan Structural Technical Department. The junction details between the walls and floors must be appropriately detailed to ensure that flanking sound is minimised. The values in the table are based on the new (since 2003) measurement index DnT,w+Ctr for airborne sound. The Ctr term is a spectrum adaptation value which is generally negative and adjusts the index to take account of low frequency sounds that often cause problems in residential buildings. Thus the DnT,w +Ctr rating is lower than the DnT,w rating for the same construction. Kingspan Insulated Panels Structural Products & Systems sub-division is a member of The Steel Construction Institute and has undertaken extensive testing on the accoustic performance of the Multideck range of composite steel slabs. The testing was carried out on behalf of Kingspan by The Steel Construction Institute and resulted in a comprehensive report: Acoustic Performance of Kingspan Composite Floors, copies of which can be obtained from our Technical Services Department.

69 Multideck 146 Structural Steel Products 69 Introduction Multideck 146 has been engineered to optimise performance of the steel and concrete. No other trapezoidal profile can span as far as Multideck 146. It supports normal weight concrete without the need for props, providing new opportunities for efficiencies in construction. Multideck 146 should be considered for projects with spanning requirements of 4.0m and above. Multideck 146 Floor Decking System The deck can be supported on the top flange of a beam or partnered with ultra shallow fabricated beams to produce a truly shallow floor construction of 215mm depth. Key benefits include: Prefixed Studs Multideck 146 is a single spanning deck so it is ideal for use with beams that have the shear studs attached in the fabrication shop avoiding, or vastly reducing, the need to through deck stud weld on site. While Multideck 146 is generally used with 19mm diameter shear studs it can be equally used with other types of shear attachments as long as the deck is provided with a minimum bearing of 50mm. Multideck 146 can be through deck stud welded on site without difficulty. Concrete Volume Savings Multideck 146 composite steel deck is optimised to minimise the concrete volumes on longer spans providing significant savings in comparison to traditional trapezoidal steel decks used free spanning or propped. Multideck 146 requires 31% less concrete than the next best spanning 80mm trapezoidal deck of the equivalent slab depth. The saving in concrete translates into a saving in weight that the structure must support, resulting in economies in the supporting structure and foundations. Technical Support Kingspan Toolkit software includes comprehensive composite floor design software which allows the user to easily select the right Multideck solution. The design software is available for download from the web site The Multideck design department provides a comprehensive engineering and advisory service to specifiers and end users on the use of the Multideck range of composite decks. Greater Design Efficiency Multideck 146 enhances the performance of the Multideck family of composite steel decks providing efficient spanning capacities to beyond 6.0m. There is a Multideck profile to suit each and every requirement. Quicker Installation Multideck 146 deck is 600mm wide and with no need for temporary props, even on spans of 6.0m, means this deck is quick to install. Reduced concrete volumes means quicker laying times and fewer concrete deliveries to site. Multideck 50 Multideck 60 Multideck 80 Multideck 146

Concrete Volumes and Specification Load / span tables are based on Grade C25/30 concrete, having a cube strength of 30N/mm2. Density of normal weight concrete: 2400kg/m3 at wet stage. Density of lightweight concrete: 1900kg/m3 at wet stage. All concrete used with Multideck in the construction of composite slabs should comply with the recommendations in BS 8110: Rake Cutting Pre-delivery cutting of sections is available. Please contact our Sales Department for details. Embossments Raised diagonal embossments in opposite directions on each face of the webs, provide mechanical connection between the steel deck and the hardened concrete. Reinforcement Reinforcement of the concrete slab to control cracking at all supports is required in accordance with BS EN 5950 Part 4: Steel reinforcement for crack control or fire performance engineering should be in accordance with British Standards. Hot rolled bars BS EN Fabric reinforcement BS 4483: References Engineers are advised to consult the SCI / MCRMA publication P300 Composite Slabs and beams using steel decking: Best practice for Design and Construction.

72 72 Structural Steel Products Multideck 146 Reinforcement Reinforcement to Concrete Composite Slab The Multideck 146 composite concrete slab is always reinforced with one 16mm diameter bar in every trough and a suitable steel mesh reinforcement positioned near the top of the concrete slab. 16mm Diameter Bar Reinforcement The Multideck 146 composite concrete slab requires a 16mm diameter rod positioned in every trough at 60mm height (from bottom of the deck). This bar reinforcement works in conjunction with the 146 steel deck to enhance the composite and fire design stage performance. In some cases the bar reinforcement will need to be anchored, this can be achieved by sufficient overlap of the bars over internal supports. On external supports the anchorage can be provided by U bars if present, or by creating a 90º bend at the end of the bar over the support. Mesh Reinforcement Mesh is required to control the cracking that can occur in the concrete due to shrinkage or stresses in the concrete. BS EN 5950 part 4 recommends that the mesh area is a minimum of 0.1% of the cross sectional area of the concrete slab. The engineer should increase the mesh area where: the slab is propped; the size of cracks in the concrete needs to be minimised; brittle finishes are applied to the slab surface; moving wheel loads or point loads are applied to the slab. Mesh reinforcement should be placed near the upper edge of the concrete slab, in a zone of 15mm to 40mm. Mesh sheets must be overlapped, use of flying ends make overlapping easier and avoid build up of the mesh thickness at overlaps. The mesh should be supported on suitable mesh stools to maintain the required mesh position. U bars are required at composite edge beams with shear studs, as on all other concrete composite steel deck floors supported on composite beams. Note: Bar shown in central trough only for clarity. All troughs should include bar reinforcement. Spacer system by specialist manufacturer.

73 Multideck 146 Structural Steel Products 73 Load / Span Tables Load / Span Tables When using load tables for Multideck 146 please take into consideration the following notes: 1 All tabulated figures include the self weight of the slab. 2 All tabulated figures include a construction allowance of 1.5kN/m2 over a length of 3.0m and 0.75kN/m2 over the remainder of the span. The 1.5kN/m2 is positioned at mid span for bending moment and adjacent to the support for shear (see diagram). 3 All tabulated values are based on use of concrete grade C25/30. 4 All tabulated loads include ponding of the wet concrete due to the deflection of the Multideck 146. Additional concrete due to the deflection of the supports (beams) is not included in the table. Use the Toolkit Software to check solutions with additional loading to account for support deflection. 5 The suggested maximum ratios of slab span to slab depth are 30 for LWC and 35 for NWC to control deflections. 6 Deflection under construction loading (wet concrete etc.) has been limited to that stipulated in BS 5950: Part Minimum reinforcement mesh sizes shown provide both 0.1% of the gross cross-sectional area and 0.2% of the cross sectional area above the ribs of the concrete at the support. Minimum reinforcement should be increased where the slab is propped or there are moving loads, or concrete crack size is a consideration i.e. where brittle finishes are required. Mesh reinforcement should be placed near the upper edge of the concrete slab, in a zone of 15mm to 40mm. 8 All values require a minimum of one 16mm diameter bar, grade B500, in each trough positioned at 60mm height 9 Line loads and / or point loading may require additional local reinforcement. Use the Multideck design software. 10 Total applied load referred to in the load tables is a working load based on factored combinations of live loads, finishes, ceilings, services and partitions, divided by a load factor of 1.60 (excluding slab self weight). 11 Temporary supports should remain in place until the concrete has achieved its 75% of the 28 day cube strength often available after 7 days. 12 Deck must lie flat on all support beams. Point only contact at the support will affect design loading. 13 Span values are centres of supports based on a width of support of 100mm. Minimum of 50mm end bearing on steel or concrete and 75mm on other materials. 14 For confirmation of the maximum construction stage unpropped spans see page Minimum slab depth is 195mm flush with top of studs but will require a structural cementitious screed for fire insulation.

77 Multideck 146 Structural Steel Products 77 Fire Resistance Fire Performance Mesh 1 The fire resistance tables for Multideck 146 on the following pages must be read in conjunction with load / span tables for Multideck 146 to verify the structural integrity of the composite slab. 2 The following fire resistance tables for Multideck 146 are based on analysis by the Steel Construction Institute. 3 All stated slab depths comply with the minimum fire insulation criteria. 4 The composite slab is treated as a single span so the values shown can be used on a single or continuous slab. 5 All solutions have a minimum of one 16 bar grade B500 per trough at 60mm height. The load tables are shown for unanchored and anchored bar reinforcement. Where there are internal supports anchoring the bars can be achieved with a simple overlap. At the end support, U bars around composite shear studs will provide the anchor. Otherwise use bond lengths beyond the inner flange edge and straight or bent bars. The unanchored solution does not need any additional attachment of the bars. 6 Minimum laps should be 300mm for A142 mesh and 400mm for A193, A252 and A393 mesh. 7 Mesh reinforcement should be placed near the upper edge of the concrete slab, in a zone of 15mm to 40mm. 8 The tables are based upon Grade C25/30 concrete for other grades use the Multideck design software. 9 The tables are based on a load factor of 1.0 for the fire case. Further capacity can be achieved by taking into account the reduced partial factor of 0.8 or 0.5 as permitted in BS 5950: Part 8 for non-permanent imposed loads. 10 For fire performance on propped construction use the Multideck Design Software. 11 Span values are centres of supports based on a width of support of 100mm. Minimum of 50mm end bearing on steel or concrete and 75mm on other materials. Examples of the applied loads for the fire load tables load factors from BS5950 part 8. The load tables are based on a Fire limit state load factor γf of 1.0. For some applications the non permanent loading can use a load factor of γf of 0.8 and for office 0.5. See table 5 BS 5950 part 8 section 7.1. Case 1 office (general use) kn/m2 Fire limit state load (kn/m2) Dead loads 3.75 x 1.0 = 3.75 Super load 2.5 Non permanent 2.5 x 0.5 = 1.25 office Load value for fire limit state 5.00 For a 215mm slab with 1.0 hour fire, the max span for anchored bars is 7.05m and for unanchored 6.33m. Case 2 general (excluding plant and storage) kn/m2 Fire limit state load (kn/m2) Dead loads 1.0 x 1.0 = 1.0 Super load 5.0 Made up of Permanent 3.0 x 1.0 = 3.0 Non permanent 2.0 x 0.8 = 1.6 general Load value for fire limit state 5.6 For a 225mm slab with 1.5 hour fire, the max span for anchored bars is 6.92m and for unanchored 5.73m. Always check the load / span capacity to verify the structural capacity and use the lesser of the capacities, fire limit state or structural. Multideck 50 Multideck 60 Multideck 80 Note: For load / span conditions beyond the scope of these tables, the Kingspan Multideck design software should be used to check for a solution.

100 100 Structural Steel Products Multideck Sitework Transport and Site Access Delivery vehicles are up to 16m long with a maximum gross weight of 30 tonnes and a turning circle of 25m. They require an access road at least 4m wide and 12m of good hard standing to allow for crane-operated unloading. Standard loads will not exceed 25 tonnes. Unloading Unloading of vehicles on-site is the responsibility of others. Safe Off Loading Systems Available Trailers with an integral fall arrest system are available on request. Please liase with your Customer Service contact when discussing deliveries. Trailers equipped with Moffett mounted truck mountable fork lift trucks are also available. Fork Lift Trucks Sheets of Multideck up to 7m long can be off loaded by fork lift trucks. Sheets longer than 7m should be lifted by crane. Multideck should be placed directly onto the supporting steelwork. If this is impractical, it should be stored as recommended under Storage. Deck Identification All Multideck bundles are marked to correspond with the customers identification requirements. Identification includes floor location, grid location, deck length, gauge and direction of lay. Where possible, bundles should be lifted from the transport and placed on the support frame ready for fixing. See pages 102 and 103. Quality Control On-site Quality control on site should be based on the recommendations of BS 8000: Part 2 Concrete Work. Storage Multideck should be stored under cover or beneath waterproof tarpaulins, off the ground on suitable timber framing with good air circulation around the sheet. The sheets should slope to drain away any rain water which may enter the storage area. When exposed to moisture, galvanised deck will develop a coating of zinc oxide. If left, this may reduce the degree of protection, so it is important to inspect regularly for moisture, and take immediate remedial action. Handling When deck has to be lifted onto the building framework, care must be taken to avoid damage by using suitable lifting equipment. Use of unprotected chains will cause damage and are not recommended. Sheet corners must be protected as these are particularly vulnerable to damage. Never walk on deck in the stack or before it is securely fixed in position (see also Safety ). Multideck sheets must not be dragged from the stack. Remove by lifting off one at a time. Full personnel safety equipment must be used at all times. Safety Important We recommend that all Multideck profiles are installed with the appropriate safety considerations. Following full risk assessment. Safety nets are a recognised solution for most cases. Handling Hazards Multideck may have a residual protective coating when delivered and should be handled with care. See BSC HS Data Sheet 18. Eye Hazards Care should be taken when breaking the strapping around bundles. Eye protectors conforming to the latest British Standard should always be worn. Protective Clothing To prevent laceration of skin, contamination by oil and risks to eyes and hands, protective overalls, gloves and eye protection should be worn at all times.

104 104 Structural Steel Products Multideck Sitework Primary fixing of the Multideck Prior to laying the Multideck the supports should be inspected to ensure that they are sound and suitable for the purpose. Engineers and contractors are advised to consult the SCI P300, MCRMA Technical Paper 13 Composite Slabs and beams using steel decking: Best practice for design and construction. And the BCSA code of practice for Metal Decking and Stud Welding. Multideck sheets must be laid and securely fixed to the support structure using primary fixings through the trough of the Mutlideck to avoid dislodgment or damage prior to and during the pour of the concrete. There are a number of fixing types that may be employed to secure the Multideck to the supporting structure, but, in general shot-fired fixings are both fast and economical. Where the Multideck will subsequently be through deck stud welded a fixing size and specification can be chosen to support the temporary load case only. Typical fixings would be Spit SDK9, Hilti X-U 15 or similar. The suitability for use on a project for any fixing type must be checked with the fixing supplier. If through deck stud welding is not being used the fixings should be sized by the engineer to suit the support beam restraint requirements both in the temporary and permanent load cases. The fixing manufactures should be consulted for guidance on the suitability and application of the fixing types. Typical fixings to consider are Hilti X-ENP-19, Spit SBR14, Spit HSBR14 or similar. The restraint requirements for steel beams can be obtained from the structural design standard used for example BS5950 Part 3 section 3.1: Appendix A.2.3 Where Multideck is supported on concrete beams or masonry, shot fired fixings may still be employed or use Spit Tapcon concrete screws or the Hilti HUS (Hilti Universal Screw). See manufactures literature for guidance. For fixing to other materials and for further information contact the fixing manufacturer.

105 Multideck Structural Steel Products 105 Minimum Fixing Numbers for Multideck More fixings may be required if they are solely providing the restraint to the support beam MD50-V3 Every sheet must have two fixings at the panel ends, and two fixings at any internal supports. Fixings must be placed one in a trough. MD60 V2 and MD80-V2 Every sheet must have one fixing in each trough at the Multideck ends, and one fixing in the lap trough at any internal supports of that Multideck sheet. MD146 Every sheet must have one fixing in each trough at the panel ends, and one fixing in the lap trough at any internal supports. MD146 is normally used single span. Side Lap Fixings Self drill self tapping screws are generally used in the side lap joints to control grout loss. MD50-V3 Side lap fixings are not normally required MD60 V2 and MD80-V2 Fixings at mid span are required. For spans above 3.0m additional fixings at 1.5m maximum spacing are required. MD146 Fixings at max spacing of 1.5m long the side lap.

106 106 Structural Steel Products Multideck Sitework Multideck 50 / 60 / 80 Shear Studs Shear Studs Where the supporting beam is engineered to be composite with the slab, shear connection is required between the steel beam and the concrete. This shear connection takes the form of headed studs which can be through deck stud welded to the top flange of the beam on site. Or if the deck is used in single span lengths the studs can be welded directly to the top of the beam in the fabrication shop. Use of the deck single span has serious cost issues for the slab so the use of double span deck lengths is the norm. Shear Stud Sizes and Lengths Shear studs for through deck welding are 19mm diameter headed studs of varying lengths. The material is low carbon steel with a minimum yield strength of 350N/mm2 and a minimum ultimate tensile strength of 450N/mm2. The length of shear studs is given as the length after welding LAW and for Multideck the shear stud should extend not less than 35mm over the shoulder of the deck i.e. Multideck 50-V3 use standard stud length of 95mm LAW Multideck 60-V2 use standard stud length of 95mm LAW Multideck 80-V2 use standard stud length of 120mm LAW Concrete Cover to Studs The concrete cover over the stud should not be less than 15mm. If the concrete is required to protect the connector against corrosion it should not be less than 20mm Stud Strengths Where shear studs are used to provide composite beam action the stud strength in the concrete can be calculated to BS5950 part 3 Section 3.1 using the Multideck geometry Where the concrete is reinforced with Dramix Steel fibres the shear stud strengths calculated from BS5950 part 3 section 3.1 may be used as they are conservative or use the design guide supplied by Bekaert. For the MD146 deck the stud strength values see page 108 or contact Structural Products Technical Department. Stud Welding Equipment Welding equipment should be from a reputable manufacturer with a minimum of 200KVA for a diesel generator or mains power at 415V 3 phase fused at 100A per phase. Adequate earth connection is required if through deck welds are to be made. Steel Beam Support The flange thickness of the underlying support beam should not be less than 0.4 x the stud diameter or 7.6mm for the 19 diameter stud. The top flange of the steel beam must be unpainted if studs are to be successfully through deck welded The flange of the supporting beam must be of sufficient width where shear studs are provided in pairs see the diagram on page 107 for dimensions.

107 Multideck Structural Steel Products 107 Stud Layout Geometry The following data is intended to be used only as a guide. Final design criteria are the responsibility of the design agency and / or a qualified design engineer. 1) The spacing of the studs should not be less than 95mm in the direction of the shear force or diagonal dimension 76mm transverse to the direction of the shear force and when studs are in line 57mm transverse to the direction of the shear force when studs are in a diagonal pattern 2) The longitudinal spacing of the studs should not exceed the lesser of 600mm or 4 x the slab depth. 3) The distance between the edge of a stud and the edge of the steel beam flange should not be less than 20mm. 4) Where studs are required along a beam and the deck is transverse to the beam the studs must be spaced to suit the location of the deck troughs. 5) Where there is a Multideck joint over the supporting beam and one stud per trough. The studs should be through deck welded in alternate troughs on each deck. So that each deck end in anchored by studs in alternate troughs. Pre Welded Studs Shear studs can be welded directly to the top flange in the fabrication shop but this requires that the Multideck is used in single span lengths. With pre welded studs all of the beam can be protected against corrosion. However, use of the deck single span has serious cost issues for the slab so the use of double span deck lengths is the norm. The position of the shear studs along the beam should be laid out to line through with the troughs in the deck transverse to the beam span. Stud layouts and beam flange size should be considered carefully to ensure there is a minimum bearing of 50mm for the deck and that the practicalities of placing packs of deck safely and laying out the deck are taken account of. Other Forms of Shear Connector Different shear connectors can be used to make the shear joint between the steel beam and the concrete. Mechanical brackets using shot fired pins to anchor to the steel beam are available but generally have a much lower shear capacity than that of through deck welded studs.

108 108 Structural Steel Products Multideck Sitework Multideck 146 Shear Studs Through Deck Stud Welding Multideck 146 is available in gauges 1.2 and 1.5mm and all gauges can be through deck stud welded to suitable supporting beams. Shear studs are 19mm diameter headed shear studs of low carbon steel, with a minimum yield point of 350N/mm2 and an ultimate tensile strength of 450N/mm2. For the Multideck 146 the length of shear stud is 200mm or 195mm LAW and 19mm diameter. The stud capacity for 195mm LAW 19mm diameter studs used with Multideck 146 and 25/30* concrete is: One stud Prd = 28.2 kn each stud Two studs Prd = 19.6 kn each stud Pair of studs must be at least 76mm apart in the transverse direction hence, the smallest flange width for two studs is 135mm. Multideck 146 with studs placed in every trough provides minimum spacing of 265mm. Where single studs per trough are used and the deck is single span, the stud placement should be staggered in alternate troughs on each deck. Prefixed to Beams Multideck 146 has been optimised for single span performance so is ideal for use with beams that have the shear studs placed in the fabrication shop, avoiding or vastly reducing the need to weld on-site. While the Multideck 146 is generally used with 19mm diameter studs, it can equally be used with other types of shear attachment. Stud layout should be placed carefully to ensure there is a minimum bearing of 50mm and that the practicalities of placing packs of deck and laying out the deck are taken account of.

109 Multideck Structural Steel Products 109 Formation of Holes in Multideck Floor Slabs The following empirical rules are based on recommendations as given in the Concrete Society report on standard details and the Steel Construction Institute publication Good Practice in Composite Floor Construction. Structural Limitatio ns Where the slab is supporting uniformly distributed loads the following rules may be applied. If concentrated or line loads exist adjacent to holes a special analysis may be required. Holes should be formed after the slab is cast, shutters being used to make a void in the concrete. 1. No hole should be closer than its width to an unsupported edge. 2. The maximum width of hole measured transversely to the span of the slab should not be greater than 700mm without additional trimming support beams. 3. In any 4m width of slab measured transversely to the span of the slab, not more than 1/4 of the slab width should be removed by all holes in the span under consideration. For slabs less than 4m wide the permissible width of holes should be reduced proportionately. 4. The length of hole measured parallel to the slab span should not be greater than 1/4 of the span without provision of trimming support beams. 5. When the distance between holes is less than 1 1/2 times the width of the largest opening, the group of holes should be considered as a single hole with an effective length of width taken as the perimeter of the group. The following information is for guidance only. The design and detailing of additional trimming reinforcement around voids is the responsibility of the engineer. Timber shutter Dense polystyrene blocks Construction Details 1. Holes not trimmed by supporting beams should be boxed out with the formwork prior to concreting and the hole in the deck should not be cut until the concrete has achieved at least 75% of its design strength. 2. Holes up to 300mm square will not require additional reinforcement or trimming beams. 3. Holes over 300mm square up to 500mm square will require the following additional reinforcement if trimming support beams are not provided. a. One T 20 bar in each trough either side of the hole (or multiple smaller bars giving equivalent area). b. One T 20 bar across each end of the hole on the deck transverse to the slab span (or multiple smaller bars giving equivalent area). c. Two additional high yield bars of the same diameter as the mesh parallel to each edge of the hole at mesh level. All reinforcing bars should extend an anchorage length beyond the edges of the hole. 4. Holes over 500mm square up to 700mm square will require the following additional reinforcement trimming if support beams are not provided. a. One T 25 bar in each trough either side of the hole (or multiple smaller bars giving the equivalent area). b. One T 25 bar across each end of the hole on the deck transverse to the span (or multiple smaller bars giving equivalent area). c. Where the slab thickness is less than 200mm, provide one T 25 bar diagonally across each corner of the opening between the bottom transverse bars and the mesh (or multiple smaller bars giving equivalent area). d. Where the slab thickness is greater than or equal to 200mm provide one T 25 bar diagonally across each corner of the opening both immediately above the bottom transverse bars and also under the top mesh (or multiple smaller bars giving equivalent area). e. Three additional high yield bars of the same diameter as the mesh across each edge of the hole at mesh level. 5. Holes over 700mm square will require trimming support beams around the opening.

110 110 Structural Steel Products Multideck Sitework Multideck 50 / 60 / 80 Temporary Supports Do I Need to Prop? Decking is usually designed and sized to be self supporting during the construction stage where the deck alone supports the weight of the wet concrete and construction loads. Temporary props are only required where the actual deck support centres exceed the construction stage performance of the deck as shown in the tables on page 111. There may be small areas of floor in a building where propping is required even though the rest of the floor remains unpropped typically these areas that require props include:- Decking bays where infill is required after the removal of the tower crane. Often the deck will be in single span lengths. Lobby areas around lift shafts where the deck may have to be laid single span to fit in with the layout. If longer spans and / or thicker slab than those shown in the tables on page 113 are required the Multideck 146 should be propped at mid span. Alternatively use the Multideck software to confirm the requirements. Other Requirements for Props Props may also be required to support side and end trims where the outstand is greater than the limits shown in this literature. Where the end of the deck abuts in-situ concrete and there is no permanent support for the end of the deck. Or where the deck cantilevers beyond the support for a distance exceeding the deck capacity shown in this literature. Layout and Location of Props The deck layout drawing should show the location and extent of props to the deck. If there is any doubt on the requirement for props consult the span tables on page 111 or use the Multideck software. Normally props are positioned at mid span (one line of props) or third points (two lines of props) within the span. Props normally consist of lengths of timber bearer and / or steel runners placed directly below the deck and supported on adjustable steel tubes (Acrows). The width of the timber and or steel plates should provide sufficient bearing area as a guide that would be between 75 and 100mm. The decking sheets must never be cut at the location of the temporary support nor should the deck be fixed to the temporary support. The bearer must be continuous and extend for the width of the bay. Discrete props and packs should not be used. The bearer should be supported by Acrows at approx 1.0m c/c spaced equally along the line of the prop and be suitably braced. All props must be adequately founded to support the loads that will be applied. Where props are being used to facilitate large spans it may be necessary to have the props in place before laying the deck to facilitate a safe working environment. A typical temporary support is shown in the detail below. Props in this arrangement are generally placed at 1.0m c/c according to the designers requirements. The design and provision of props is the responsibility of others. Note: We recommend that temporary supports are braced in both directions for safety.

111 Multideck Structural Steel Products 111 Use the tables below to determine if props are required for a given condition. If the span shown in the table is greater than the actual span on site, no temporary supports are needed. If the span shown in the table is less than your actual span, temporary supports are required. Determining the propping requirements is generally the responsibility of the structural designer when specifying a composite slab. If it is subsequently ascertained that propping is required, to ensure that the completed slab can withstand the additional load from the removal of the prop, the structural engineer must be consulted.

Where crack control is essential, props should not be removed until the concrete has achieved its specified design strength. 2. Span values are based on 100mm minimum support widths.

112 112 Structural Steel Products Multideck Sitework Multideck 146 Temporary Supports Do I Need to Prop? Multideck 146 is designed as single span with a capacity of 6.0m plus and as such does not normally require temporary supports during the construction stage. There may be cases where longer spans are required and the deck can be propped during the construction stage. Load tables are shown for the Multideck mm gauge propped construction. The requirement for temporary support must be clearly shown and identified on the drawings of the deck layout. Provision of props to deck, that was not intended to be propped, should be checked with the engineer as the composite stage capacity can be reduced. If temporary supports are required, they should be provided at mid span of the Multideck 146 so that the span either side of the prop is equal. The decking sheets must never be cut at the location of temporary support and the deck should not be fixed to the temporary support. Temporary supports should continuously support the underside of the deck and are normally lengths of timber or steel beams supported by adjustable steel tubes ( Acrows ). The width of the temporary support on which the deck sits should not be less than 100mm and should extend for the full width of the bay of deck and be suitably braced. Discrete props and packs should not be used. It may be necessary to put the temporary supports in place prior to laying of the deck. The support of the prop at the base must always be considered for strength and stability, taking account of the weight of wet concrete and construction loads. The design and provision of props is the responsibility of others. A typical temporary support is shown in detail below. Note: We recommend that temporary supports are braced in both directions for safety.

113 Multideck Structural Steel Products 113 Use the tables below to determine if props are required for a given condition. If the span shown in the table is less than the actual span temporary supports are required. Determining the propping requirements is generally the responsibility of the structural designer when specifying a composite slab. If it is subsequently ascertained that propping is required, to ensure that the completed slab can withstand the additional load from the removal of the prop, the structural engineer must be consulted.

114 114 Structural Steel Products Multideck Concrete Kingspan supply the Multideck product for use with in-situ placed concrete to create a composite concrete slab. As such it is important that the concrete and its placement meet the minimum requirements to achieve a quality product. Concrete should be specified, supplied and assessed in accordance with the requirements of BS8500. Minimum concrete strength The load tables in this literature assume a minimum concrete strength of C25/30 with a minimum cube strength of 30N/mm2 at 28 days. The Multideck design software allows designs with concrete cube strengths from 25 to 50N/mm2 with a default of 30N/mm2. The concrete supplied on site must meet or exceed the minimum design values used. Consistence Concrete is normally pumped on to the deck and it should have a suitable consistency to allow placement without heaping of the concrete on the deck. The consistency of the concrete should be specified by the concrete contractor. Typical values are S2 or S3. The use of Bekaert s Dramix steel fibre in the concrete will require consideration of the mix design to create a suitable consistency the concrete contractor should seek guidance from Bekaert if they do not have previous experience in the use of Dramix steel fibre reinforced concrete. Self Compacting Concrete May be used with Multideck products advice should be sought from the ready mix supplier as to suitable grades and slump flow test values to be used. Care must be taken to account for the deflection of the deck and supporting beams resulting in a thicker slab, as the self compacting concrete will flow to a level. The additional concrete depth should be taken in to account in the construction stage design of the Multideck. Concrete placement Concrete can be conveniently placed by pump either mobile or for very high multi-story buildings by fixed pumps. Where the pump line is laid across the deck its weight should be adequately dispersed by spreaders to avoid damaging the deck. Ideally the concrete should be discharged on to the deck at a beam support position with the concrete being moved and spread out as quickly as possible to avoid heaping which may overload the Multideck. The concrete discharge pipe should be held horizontally so that the concrete is not discharged vertically and the height of discharge should be kept to a minimum to avoid damage to the deck by the impact load from the wet concrete. Further Guidance For further guidance on concrete placement, and composite slabs on Multideck see The SCI / MCRMA publication 300 Composite Slabs and beams using steel decking.

To take account of deck deflection an additional allowance of span / 285,000 = m3/mm2 should be added. Consideration should be given to the support deflection (beam) and an allowance included in the volume of concrete required. Multideck Design Software allows consideration of beam deflection. Day Joints Day joints in the concrete slab should be placed as close as possible to the butt joint in the Multideck over the support, but clear and leaving uncast any shear studs where the Multideck is supported on a steel beam. Keeping the shear studs clear from the day joint avoids the studs being preloaded when the other side of the slab is subsequently cast. Where it is not possible to cast the day joint close to the Multideck butt joint no more than one third of the sheet should be left un-poured. Timber, foam or proprietary closures should be provided by the concrete contractor to fit the profile and form the day joint stop. If the slab is reinforced with Dramix Steel fibre additional continuity bar reinforcement should be provided at the day joint.

116 116 Structural Steel Products Multideck Concrete Reinforcement Concrete is a brittle material strong in compression but weak in tension and as such must be reinforced with a material that can provide tensile strength and ductility. The most common reinforcement material is steel. Multideck Primary reinforcement Where the slab is designed as composite it is the Multideck that provides all of the tensile reinforcement for the slab. The mechanical shear keys formed in to the webs and ribs of the Multideck product lock the concrete and deck together. Performance values are derived from testing. Mesh reinforcement Mesh reinforcement is required to control cracking that can occur in the concrete due to shrinkage or other induced tensile stresses in the concrete. The composite slab loading case is generally designed as a single span and where the concrete is continuous a light mesh reinforcement is provided over the supports to control possible cracking. BS EN 5950 part 4 suggest that the minimum mash area is a 0.1% of the cross sectional area of the concrete slab at the support. Top mesh should be placed in a zone of 15 to 40mm from the top surface of the slab. Additional mesh reinforcement may be needed at positions of concentrated loads i.e. point or line loading, BS EN 5950 provides guidance on minimum values to adopt. These secondary reinforcements are normally placed on the top of the deck so deeper slabs may require two layers of reinforcement in specific areas. The engineer should consider increasing the mesh area where: The slab is propped during construction The size of any cracks in the slab need to be controlled Brittle finishes are applied to the slab surface Moving wheel or point loads are applied to the slab Mesh sheets must be over lapped, use of flying ends make overlapping easier and avoids build up of the mesh thickness at laps. The mesh should be supported on a suitable mesh stools to maintain the required position during the concrete pour. Bar reinforcement Bar reinforcement is some times required with Multideck composite slabs. Where the fire period combined with the applied loading exceeds the slab performance using mesh, then, addition bar reinforcement can be used to provide a solution. The Multideck design software offers a full range of A mesh and bar reinforcement combinations. MD146 long spanning deck requires a minimum of one 16 dia. bar reinforcement per trough for all load cases. Bar reinforcement should be supported on suitable bar stools or wired from the mesh so that the bar is located in the correct height and position in the slab as shown in the design. U bars are required around shear studs on composite edge beams to avoid splitting of the concrete at the composite edge beam. Dramix Steel fibres The use of Dramix steel fibres can replace mesh reinforcement in Multideck 50-V3, 60-V2 and 80-V2, composite slabs providing the structural performance documented in this literature. See specifically page 118 to 119 and the general section for each deck.

120 120 Structural Steel Products Multideck Concrete Kingspan Multideck and Bekaert Composite Slab Dramix Steel Fibres Dramix Steel Fibres are made from prime quality hard-drawn steel-wire to ensure high tensile strength and close tolerances. Dramix Steel Fibres are added to the concrete during mixing. The gluing of the fibres into bundles guarantees quick and easy mixing with perfectly homogeneous distribution. The hooked ends slowly deforms during pull-out and is generally considered as the best form of anchorage. Dramix steel fibres are manufactured in accordance with BS EN ISO 9001:2008 (the dramix steel fibre specifications were previously referenced RC-80/60-BN and RC-65/60-BN). Shear Strength The shear resistance of Dramix concrete reinforced with a dosage of 20kg/m3 3D-80/60-BG / 30kg/m3 3D-65/60-BG exceeds that of mesh reinforced concrete. This means that codified checks for longitudinal shear can be adopted and will not penalise fibre reinforced slabs. For 30kg/m3 the area of fibres crossing a shear plane may be taken as 0.37% of the concrete area. Shear Stud Capacities The SCI has established the following design information relating to shear stud strengths from the test data: In order to design studs embedded in fibre reinforced concrete with a dosage of 20kg/m3 of Dramix 3D-80/60-BG or 30kg/m3 of Dramix 3D-65/60-BG fibres in accordance with BS :1990 no shear stud strength reduction factor is applicable. In order to design studs embedded in fibre reinforced concrete with a dosage of 20 kg/m3 of Dramix 3D-80/60-BG or 30 kg/m3 of Dramix 3D-65/60-BG fibres in accordance with BS DD ENV 1994 Part 2: 2001 no shear stud strength reduction factor is applicable. Recommendations When Mixing 1. General Preferably use a central batching plant mixer when adding Dramix Steel Fibres into concrete. A continuous grading is preferred. Mix until all glued fibres are separated into individual fibres. Fibres don t increase mixing time significantly. If special cements or admixtures are used, a preliminary test is recommended. 2. Fibre Addition 2.1. In batching plant mixer. Never add fibres as first component in the mixer Fibres can be introduced together with sand and aggregates, or can be added in freshly mixed concrete Only for drummixer: unopened degradable bags can be thrown directly in the mixer 2.2. Truckmixer Add Dramix as the final component into the back of the mixer truck Run mixer at drum speed: 12-18rpm Adjust slump to a min. of 12cm (preferably with water reducing agents or high water reducing agents) Add fibres with maximum speed of 40kg/min Optional equipment: belt-hoist elevator After adding the fibres, continue mixing at highest speed for 4-5 min 2.3. Automatic dosing Fibres can be dosed from bulk at rates up to 3.5kg/sec with a specially developed dosing equipment Should you require further information please contact Bekaert for: Composite slab design Dramix Steel Fibres data sheet 3D-80/60-BG / 3D-65/60-BG Fire test report Composite slab load-span tables Composite slab fire resistance tables SCI reports

122 122 Structural Steel Products Multideck Car Park Solutions Multi-storey and Below Ground Car Parks Composite Metaldeck Floor Slabs Car parking provision has become a vital part of urban planning, especially in Metropolitan areas at commercial, retail and transport hubs. Multi-storey car park structures provide an economical solution where land is at a premium either for a build above or below ground. Successful parking structures will be designed to meet users demands high on that list are feeling safe and secure and that their vehicle and contents are secure given the choice, people will use parking structures that are light and bright and feel secure. Multi-storey car parks have by their very nature a more corrosive environment which can cause challenges in selecting suitable products that will perform in the longer term and offer a low maintenance requirement over time. The air within the car park is often contaminated with fumes from car engines, the floor slab can be sprayed with water from wet cars and during winter periods de-icing salts and other corrosive elements can be tracked into the car park and be deposited on the concrete slab. Some multi-storey car parks mitigate the fumes by having open elevations but this has a tendency to mingle external air, which can be damp and also polluted, with the engine fumes creating a more corrosive environment for the structure. On the corrosion scale car parks are often classed at C3 C4 as identified in ISO 9223, where C5 is generally the highest corrosion class. If no roof structure is provided, so the top parking deck is open to the elements then the slab will be exposed to the full rigor of the weather which can adversely attack the exposed concrete slab if not protected adequitly. Below ground car parks are a popular solution at major retail and commercial developments offering design options where the developments foot print is limited. Below ground car parks have the additional issue of suitable ventilation to mitigate the build-up of fumes both for the wellbeing of the car park users as well as mitigating the corrosion effect of the structure. In below ground parking structures the brightness and lightness and soffit height are doubly important for feelings of wellbeing. Multideck XP Multideck XP is the newest addition to our Multideck range of composite steel decking systems. It combines the benefits of a strong trapezoidal-profiled sheet utilizing high strength steel to give economic spans with the latest development in metallic coating to provide an enhanced corrosion protection extending the products life in corrosive environments. The high strength steel core of Multideck XP is protected by a 310 gram/m2 coating of Magnelis from ArcelorMittal. The Magnelis metallic coating has a unique blend of Magnesium, Aluminium and Zinc to create an enhanced corrosion performance especially in aggressive environments contaminated with chloride or highly alkaline. So is ideally suited to protect the exposed steel surface of the Multideck XP composite metal deck used in car park floor slab. The same flat samples were also compared in a cylic corrosion test (3CT) according to VDA The Multideck XP range suitable for car park floor slabs comprises. Multideck XP 50, Multideck XP 60, Multideck XP 80 and Multideck XP 146 all come in a range of gauges to give economical span solution with low maintenance. Multideck 50 Magnelis 20 microns Galvanised 20 microns Multideck 60 Composite Slab Construction The use of Kingspan Multideck metal deck composite floor slabs provides a proven, rapid and cost effective solution when used with steel or concrete framed parking structures. But given the corrosive nature of the internal environment, selection of the deck and consideration of the right combination of concrete + finishes is important for low maintenance in use. Multideck 80 Multideck 146

123 Multideck Structural Steel Products 123 The progressively deeper (50, 60, 80, 146mm) Multideck XP profiles offer increasing spanning capability, while limiting the overall depth of the slab. This combination gives a very economical solution in terms of concrete usage and slab depth in most cases of car park bay size and the spacing of the supporting structure. The deepest, Multideck 146 profile will provide 6.0m clear spans while supporting a 215mm deep slab. Multideck XP Powder Coated Soffit Choice of RAL Where a coloured soffit is required to the underside of the floor slab for reflectivity, Kingspan can provide a powder coated finish to the under side of the deck using its own in house powder coating line, which allows a better control of quality and supply a range of RAL colours are available but the most popular choice is white for reflectivity. Painted soffit deck is delivered in protective wrap to ensure a quality finish delivered to site. Multideck Z275 Zinc Coating The standard Multideck product MD50, MD60, MD80, MD146 can all be used in structures for car parking but requires careful attention to the protection of all the exposed concrete surfaces of the slab. The top surface of the concrete must be protected with an impervious layer that is crack bridging. All joints of the floor slab at columns, edges, upstands must be sealed with a sufficient flexibility and crack bridging coating so there is no possibility of the ingress of moisture and contaminants, to avoid subsequent damage to the reinforcement in the concrete and the reverse face of the Multideck. The external soffit of the Multideck must be protected either by the Kingspan powder coated option or an on-site applied paint coating which can be maintained. Multideck MD206C A special deep deck trapezoidal profile with a pre-applied paint coating on top of a zinc coating to both the exposed soffit and the reverse deck face in contact with the concrete. The advantage of the MD206C product is the very shallow slab depth over the top of the supporting steel beams of only 80mm. This shallow depth is possible due to the patented support system that allows the majority of the deck & concrete slab depth to be supported between the main steel beams. The MD206C slab can clear span up to 5.7m which is often sufficient for a two car bay layout of the supporting beams. Concrete Slab and Embedded Steel Reinforcement Protection The concrete within a car park is particularly susceptible to corrosion attack and deterioration. Unprotected concrete is porous and with the possibility of cracks forming there is a ready path for the ingress of moisture and contaminates that will attack the embedded steel reinforcement and the reverse face of the composite metal deck. Both the steel reinforcement and the reverse face of the deck cannot be maintained during the life of the structure so it vital to specify robust water proofing systems. It is vital to have a robust design solution for the concrete slab. By specifying a higher strength and grade XD3 concrete with adequate embedded reinforcement, and/or specifying adequate barrier layers and coatings to all the concrete surfaces. The top surface of the concrete must be protected with an impervious layer that is crack bridging. All joints of the floor slab at columns, edges, upstands must be sealed with a sufficiently flexible and crack bridging coating. So there is no possibility of the ingress of moisture and contaminants in to the slab. With all parking floor slabs it is necessary to include adequate falls and drainage so that polluted water does not stand on the slab surface. Manufactures guidance should be followed for the correct choice of product application and maintenance.
