Construction: Composite floor system

Construction: Composite floor system: training video from the Corus BCSA training pack.

"Composite floor slabs generally comprise profiled steel floor deck with in-situ concrete cast over the deck. The deck acts as permanent shuttering and spans in a direction transverse to the secondary beams. Primary and secondary beams in composite steel frames are rigidly connected to the floor slabs by 'shear studs', which are connected to the beams by through-deck welding techniques.
This allows the floor slab and the beams beneath to act compositely. Beam depths are therefore less than any equivalent non-composite frames."

I have produced the transcript of this video for the benefit of any students watching this, and anyone else who likes to read as they watch:

This is better than prefab ,bec. the installation is simpler & you don't have to use crane.2nd is there will be no form underside.The form is the steel itself.

love the way with the 3D explanation!
