Introduction:
In this Report we will be discussing the design of composite slab using different corrugated sheet profiles, but first we will mention the idea of composite structure then we will discussing the concept of the composite slab and finally using the different corrugated sheet profile we will calculate the maximum resisting moment that each profile can withstand.

Composite Structure:
Composite Structures are structures made up of more than 1 material that work together each material carries the type of stress that it is suited for; for example in composite slabs concrete carries compressive stress while steel (Corrugated sheet) carries the tensile stress. Composite Structures reduce labor cost but needs skilled labor to execute but the most beneficial use of composite structures is that is reduces construction time as it is faster to execute. Types of Composite structures: o Composite Slab which consists of corrugated deck and concrete. o Composite Beam which consists of steel section, shear connectors and solid/composite slab. o Composite Column and Frames like steel pipe filled with concrete or steel section enclosed within a concrete column. A composite material is basically a combination of two or more materials, each of which retains its own distinctive properties. The concept of composite materials is ancient. An example is adding straw to mud for building stronger mud walls. Most commonly, composite materials have a bulk phase, which is continuous, called the matrix; and a dispersed, noncontinuous, phase called the reinforcement. Some other examples of basic composites include concrete (cement mixed with sand and aggregate), reinforced concrete (steel rebar in concrete), and fiberglass (glass strands in a resin matrix).

Composite Slab:
Composite Slab which as we said before consisted a steel deck and a concrete slab with means of interlock between these 2 materials these interlocks can be either: o Mechanical Interlock where interlock is achieved via mechanical bonds due to different physical interlock mechanisms in the corrugated sheet via ribs in sheets. o Chemical Interlock where interlock is achieved via chemical bonds between 2 materials which act as the glue which keep material tacked with each other. o Frictional Interlock: natural bond occurring between any 2 materials.

Composite Slab Design:

The fundamental design concept of composites is that the bulk phase accepts the load over a large surface area, and transfers it to the reinforcement material, which can carry a greater load. The Idea is to load each element with the type of stress it is design to withstand, where the steel reinforcement can withstand tension stress and the concrete is designed to withstand the compressive stress. In the design process we usually design on 2 stages; o The first stage is the construction stage during construction, the profiled steel deck acts alone to carry the weight of wet concrete, self weight, workmen and equipments. It must be strong enough to carry this load and stiff enough to be serviceable under the weight of wet concrete only. o The second stage is called the composite stage where the slab is permanently designed to carry the permanent loads which are expected to be carried by the composite slab which will consists of the corrugated sheet as well as the concrete part, the loads in this stage are the loads of hard concrete, finishing and false ceiling, partition loads as well as live load. In Our Example we used profiles from a company called TATA Steel which specializes in steel structures and one of which is the composite floor decking (ComFlor). The Profile type we used is called (ComFlor 46) which has the following properties which will be listed in the design calculations, also the whole brochure will be attached to the word file for checking of any information if required. Here is the part of the brochure from which the properties of section was acquired:

Design Calculation:
Given:

o Moment of Resistance of Section Only (Mpa ) = 4.63 KN.m/m o Thickness of Concrete above Corrugated Sheet (T) = (hc) = 10 cm (Assumption) o Centroid of Corrugated Sheet (e) = 23 mm o Modulus of Elasticity of Corrugated Sheet (Ea) = 2100 t/cm2 o Inertia of Corrugated Sheet (Ip) = 41.5 cm4 o Yield Strength of Corrugated Sheet (Fybd) = 550 Mpa o Area of Corrugated Sheet per 1 meter (Ap) = 1137 mm2/m' o Width of Single Corrugation (b0) = (120+67)/2 = 93.5 mm o Width of Corrugation (b) = 225 mm o Yield Strength of Concrete (fcu) = 250 Kg/cm2 Calculations: o Ncf = 0.85 Fcbd* X * b = Ap* Fypd = 0.85 * (25/1.5) * X * 1 =1137 * (0.55/1.15) So X = 44.14 mm. Since Hc =100 mm (Assumed), So X < hc neutral axis in concrete o MRd = Ncf *( db 0.5 X ) where dp = h- e = 146 -23 = 133 mm MRd = 625.35 * (0.123 0.5 * 0.4414) = 63.11 KN.m/m (Resisting Moment of Section) o V min = 0.035 * 250.5 * ( VRd = ) (1.5) = 0.6 N/mm2, So

*123 * 0.6 = 30.7 KN/m (Resisting Shear of Section)
