| CD 36 Compsite Deck | Note to Designer |

EXAMPLE (Use of CD36 Load Table) |
 Note: 1. Section properties are in accordance with CSA-S136-94. 2. Loads greater than 10 kPa or 200 psf usually indicates heavy concentrated or moving loads. Generally additional negative and transverse reinforcing steel must be considered. 3. Loads are based on steel conforming to ASTM A653 grade 33 (ASTM A653M grade 230) steel with a minimum yield stress of 33 ksi and 230 MPa. 4. Properties of concrete are based on 2300 kg/m3 (145pcf), normal density concrete having a minimum compressive strength of 20.7 MPa (3 ksi) 5. For normal applications of CD36 composite steel floors, no additional reinforcing steel, other than temperature mesh for shrinkage crack control is required. With slab thicknesses published in these tables a minimum wire mesh of 6 x 6 – 10 /10 (152 x 152 – MW9.1 / MW9.1) is recommended. For additional details see CSSBI S3-88. 6. Loads for the deck acting as a form include slab weight and a construction load of 21 psf, uniformly distributed live load which has been accounted for in the load table. (CSSBI 12M-96 standard) 7. Slab thickness is measured from top of concrete to bottom of steel deck. 8. Agway Metals Inc. (LSD) composite load tables and physical properties are based on tests performed by Dr. R.M. Schuster P.Eng. Professor of Structural Engineering, University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada using the CSSBI S2-85 standard for testing of composite slabs. |
