From ComFlor 46 all the way to ComFlor 100 the Corus
range of decks provides the optimum solution for all over
beam applications.
Covering unpropped construction from 2.5 to 4.5 metres
each ComFlor profile offers particular application benefits.
The shallow decks are suitable for conventional composite
construction where the deck is placed onto the top flange
of the steel support beam.
q====
ComFlor 210 and ComFlor 225 are both designed to be
used with the Corus Slimdek system, which uses
asymmetric beams. The floor deck lands on the wider
bottom flange of the Asymmetric beam.
With typical unpropped spans extending to 6 metres and
propped spans to 9 metres the deep decks provide clear
open space between beams. The deck is contained within
the beam depth, which provides a very shallow floor zone.
The shape of the deck profiles allow for service integration
and the whole system provides inherent fire resistance.

The next generation of
profiled steel composite decks
ComFlor 80 is the next generation of profiled steel composite
decks; it is the only 80mm profile available in Colorcoat prefinished steel to provide a durable and attractive appearance.
The large corner curvature detail provides a very efficient profile.
In conjunction with the higher grade of steel, it ensures typical
unpropped spans of 4.4m simply supported and in the
continuous condition, spans of 5m can be achieved.

Shallow composite profile
ComFlor 100 has a very strong profile shape and offers the
capability to span up to 4.5 metres without props. Designed
particularly for Continental European application, the
ComFlor 100 also brings considerable benefits to the
British designer looking for longer unpropped spans. The
profile is not suitable for use with shear stud connectors.

The combination of this manual and
Comdek software makes both quick
reference and full design easy. Indicative
design may be carried out from the printed
tables, however the software greatly
increases the scope available to the design
engineer and allows the engineer to print a
full set of calculations which can be used for
submission to a Local Authority.

FibreFlor can be used to replace anti crack
mesh. Where mesh is used, BS 5950 : Part
4 recommends that it comprises 0.1% of
slab area. The Eurocode 4 recommendation
is that anti-crack mesh should comprise
0.2% of slab area for unpropped spans and
0.4% of slab area for propped spans. The
mesh shown in the quick reference tables
complies with EC4 and the design program
defaults to these values. The reduced BS
mesh values may still be used by overriding
this default in the design program.

Composite floors are usually covered by
finishes, flooring or a computer floor; and
because cracking is not visible, light top
reinforcement is adequate, typically 0.1% of
the gross cross sectional area. However
where the composite slab is to be left
uncovered, e.g. for power trowelled floor
finishes, cracking, particularly over the
beams, may not be adequately controlled by
the light mesh usually provided, or by
FibreFlor allone. The cracking has no
structural significance, but the appearance
of it, and the possibility of the crack edge
breakdown under traffic, may be perceived
as problems. In this case, refer to Concrete
Society publication, 'Cracking In Composite
Concrete/Corrugated Metal Decking Floors
Slabs' which provides valid mesh sizing and
detailing for specific crack width control.
Where forklifts are to be used also refer to
Steel Construction Institute advisory note
'AD 150, Composite Floors - Wheel Loads
From Forklifts'. Both publications are
available from our Technical Advisory Desk.

There are two requirements for fire design:
* Bending resistance in fire conditions.
* Minimum slab depth for insulation
purposes.
The capacity of the composite slab in fire
may be calculated using either the simple
method or the fire engineering method. The
simple method will be the most economic.
The fire engineering method should be used
for design to Eurocodes.
The simple method: The simple method may
be used for simply supported decks or for
decks continuous over one or more internal
supports. The capacity assessment in fire is
based on a single or double layer of
standard mesh. Any bar reinforcement is
ignored.

Openings can be accommodated readily in
composite slabs, by boxing out prior to
pouring concrete and cutting out the deck
after concrete has cured (see sitework
section on page 45. The design of openings
depends on their size:
p~
Openings up to 300 mm square - do not
normally require additional reinforcement.
j
Openings between 300 mm and 700 mm
square - normally require additional
reinforcement to be placed in the slab. This
is also the case if the openings are placed
close together.
Openings greater than 700mm square should be trimmed with additional permanent
steelwork back to the support beams.

Where W = width of opening across the span

unsupported edge must be greater than
500mm or W, whichever is the greater.
2. Openings must not be closer together than
1.5W (of the largest opening) or 300mm,
whichever is the greater. If they are closer
they must be considered as one opening.

Immediately after laying, the deck must be
fixed through its trough to the top of the
supporting structure. Powder actuated
pins or self-drilling screws are used.
Side lap fixings are required at 1000mm
centres for ComFlor 46, ComFlor 60,
ComFlor 80 and ComFlor 100.
Where shear studs are being used, the deck
requires two fixings per sheet per support at
sheet ends and one fixing per sheet at
intermediate supports.
Where shear studs are not employed, the
deck must be fixed as follows:
cfufkd=fkcloj^qflk=clo=pe^iilt=ab`hfkd
To Steel
Self-drilling screws. To steel up to 11mm thick SFS SD14 - 5.5 x 32 / EJOT HS 38 or equivalent. To steel

Most commonly used shear connectors are
19mm diameter headed studs, which are
welded to the support beam through the
deck, a process carried out by specialist
stud welding contractors.
Site conditions must be suitable for welding
and bend tests carried out as appropriate.
The spacing and position of the shear
connectors is important and must be defined
by the design engineer on the deck set out
drawings.
Minimum Spacing: The minimum centre-tospacing of stud shear connectors should be
5d along the beam and 4d between adjacent
studs, where d is the nominal shank
diameter. Where rows of studs are
staggered, the minimum transverse spacing
of longitudinal lines of studs should be 3d.
The shear stud should not be closer than
20mm to the edge of the beam. See page 34.
Further guidance on shear studs for
designers and installers may be found in
The Steel Construction Institution
publications: P300 Composite Slabs and
Beams Using Steel Decking: Best Practice
for Design and Construction, P055 Design of
Composite Slabs and Beams with Steel
Decking.

GTD-clip hangar fixings are cold formed thin
steel hangers with circular openings in the
soffit to take metric bolts, threaded rods or
further pipe clamp hangers. The system is
installed after the composite slab has been
poured and the concrete is sufficiently
hardened.
j=~
FirbreFlor can be used in place of anti crack
mesh, which eliminates all mesh position
issues. However if reinforcing mesh is used,
it is positioned towards the top of the slab.
The top cover to the reinforcement mesh
should be a minimum of 15mm and a
maximum of 30mm. Support stools are
required to maintain the correct mesh height.
The mesh must be lapped by 300mm for
A142 and A193 mesh, and by 400mm for
A252 and A393 mesh.
`~=
Before the concrete is poured, the decking
must be cleared of all dirt and grease, which
could adversely influence the performance of
the hardened slab. The oil left on the decking
from the roll forming process does not have to
be removed. Concrete should be poured
evenly, working in the direction of span.
Care should be taken to avoid heaping of
concrete in any area during the casting
sequence.
Construction and day joints should occur over
a support beam, preferably also at a deck joint.

Wedges are dovetail shaped steel blocks,
which are threaded to take metric bolts or
threaded rods. The wedge nut hanger
system is installed after the concrete of the
composite slab has been poured and is
hardened.
f~~
For installation of the system, wedge nuts
are inserted into the raised re-entrants of the
profile before being rotated 90 degrees, after
which the dovetail shaped wedge nuts will
lock into the dovetail re-entrants under
vertical loading. Finally, the bolts or threaded
rods are finger tightened up to the roof of
the re-entrants and mechanically tightened.

Openings greater than 300mm must be
designed by the engineer, with extra
reinforcement placed around the opening.
Openings up to 700mm can be
accommodated readily in composite slabs, by
boxing out prior to pouring concrete and
cutting out the deck after concrete has cured.
Larger openings require support trimming
steel, which must be installed prior to the
decking. The decking is cut away
immediately and the opening edges are then
treated like any other perimeter with edge
trim.
q~=
The safe design and installation of temporary
props is the responsibility of the main
contractor or designated sub-contractor.
Where temporary supports are required by
the design, these must provide continuous
support to the profiled sheeting. Spreader
beams (timbers) are used, supported by
temporary props at one metre centres.
[a] The timbers and props must be of
adequate strength and construction
[b] The temporary supports are placed at
midspan or at other suitable centres if more
supports per span are required. Please

Deep Composite Floor Decks will be considered where longer span (4m plus) floor slabs are
required. When combined with the Slimdek system by Corus, deep decks are designed to
achieve a very shallow overall structural floor.
a===
Our deep composite floor decks will be
used in one of these applications:
1 Corus Slimdek system.
2 Long span composite concrete/steel floor
deck in composite steel construction.
3 Long span composite concrete/steel floor
deck in masonry construction.
The design considerations relating to the
decking are similar for all these applications.
`=p
This system comprises asymmetric Slimflor
beams (ASB) and deep ComFlor 225
decking.
a=f~
a=`=c=a a=f~
p =
There are two distinct stages for which the
elements of the Slimdek system must be
designed. The first is the construction stage,
during which the beams and decking
support the loads as non-composite
sections. During the second stage the
decking and concrete act together to form
composite slabs, as do (generally) the ASBs
and slab. SFBs and RHSFBs will act
compositely if shear studs have been
provided.
Construction load
1.5 kN/m2 x 1.6
`=~=~=
Having established these scheme design
parameters, detailed design of the beams
and slab can be undertaken. The following
slab depths should be considered as typical:
280 ASB sections - 290-320mm deep slab
300 ASB sections - 315-340mm deep slab.
These depths will provide adequate cover to
the ASB for it to act compositely with the
slab. For SFBs a greater range of slab
depths may be considered for a given depth
of beam; the slab depth requirement will
depend on whether shear studs must be
accommodated to make the SFB act
compositely.
p ~=
The design of the beams in the Slimdek
system is presented in The Corus Slimdek
Manual and Design Software which is
available from Corus Construction Centre
01724 405060. Further detailed design
information is available in The Steel
Construction Institute publications: P300
Composite Slabs and Beams Using Steel
Decking: Best Practice for Design and
Construction, P055 Design of Composite
Slabs and Beams with Steel Decking.
Please see references section for further
information.
a=
In addition to considering the self-weight of
the slab, the design of the deep decking
should take into account temporary
construction loads. These construction loads

The end bearing of the sheets should be
specified as 50 mm. The flange widths
are such that this bearing can be achieved,
whilst still allowing the sheets to be dropped
vertically into position (i.e. without having to
thread them between the top and bottom
flanges).

The design of composite slabs using deep
decking differs from that for shallow decking
in the following ways:
Placing bar reinforcement in the troughs of
the decking increases the ultimate load
resistance of the slab. The benefit of these
bars is considered in both the normal and
fire conditions.

One of the principal considerations
governing the choice of slab depth is the
required fire resistance period. Minimum
depths are given above as a function of the
concrete type and fire resistance required
and are based on insulation requirements.

Partial continuity for deep decking: Tests have
shown that the ComFlor 225 or ComFlor
210 composite slabs supported on a steel
beam and provided with adequately detailed
continuity mesh reinforcement over the steel
beam support exhibits a degree of continuity
at the support. The beneficial effect of partial
continuity at the supports may be taken into
account by specifying CONTINUOUS in the
Span Type field. When this option is specified,
the following assumptions are made by the
design software;

ComFlor 225 decking must be installed by
contractors approved by Corus, and
ComFlor 210 should only be installed by
contractors experienced in fixing long span
steel decking.
It is the responsibility of the contractor to
provide safe working procedures for the
installation of deep decking on any particular
project and to provide a risk assessment to
the main contractor.
Reference should be made to the BCSA
publication Installation of Deep Decking.

The decking sheets are manually lowered
individually onto the beams. In the Slimdek
system, the end bearing of the sheets
should be 50 mm; the flange widths are
such that this can be achieved, whilst still
being able to drop the sheets vertically into
position (i.e. without having to thread them
between the top and bottom flanges).
Once the sheets for the whole bay are in
place, they are secured to the beam flanges
using heavy duty shot-fired fixings. The
required number of main fixings for ComFlor
225 is two per trough, one on both sides of

Steel end diaphragms, as manufactured by
Corus, are essential for both deep deck
systems to ensure the structural integrity of
the deck. The end diaphragms, are fixed first
and are supplied in lengths of 1800 mm, to
cover three of our deep deck profiles. They
are fixed using at least two light duty shotfired pins for each length; in the Slimdek
system the end diaphragms align with the
edge of the lower flange of the beam.

The steelwork must be stable and
adequately restrained with support for the
deck around columns and openings. The
Corus Panels and Profiles deep decking can
be easily cut, and fitted, to accommodate
columns and other awkward shapes. Where
there is no supporting steelwork, brackets
fixed to the column will have to be used for
local support to the deck.
Fit restraint straps at 600mm c/c to prevent any bowing of edge trim.

Our deep decks can be cantilevered in its
length up to 500mm during construction.
When Cantilevers are required perpendicular
to the span of the profile, stub beams or
some similar type of support has to be
supplied. In both cases, the Cantilever must
be assessed, for the final stage, in
accordance with BS8110 Part 1, to
determine whether additional reinforcement
is required.
o
The decking forms a part of the slab
reinforcement, with the remainder being
supplied by a bar in each trough of the
decking and a mesh placed near to the top
of the slab. Reinforcement should be fixed in
accordance with the requirements of the
structural designer. Normally, circular plastic
spacers are used to position the bars 70mm
from the base of the trough. This distance
can increase to 90 or 120mm (respectively)
when 90 or 120 minutes fire resistance are
required. There may be additional mesh or
bar requirements to fix adjacent to the
supports or edge beams, or above beams
for crack control purposes.
Any shear studs that are required (to make
SFBs or RHSFBs composite) may be welded
to these sections during fabrication, because
they do not interfere with the decking. If they
are to be welded on site, the precautions
and procedures outlined on page 28 should
be considered.

Permanent Formwork Profile Range
We manufacture a range of five profiles which are used
as permanent formwork. Permanent formwork remains
in situ for the life of the building but, unlike composite
flooring profiles, it does not act as reinforcement in the
concrete slab.
The steel decking supports the wet
reinforcement.

The bundles should be lifted from the lorry.
Bundles should never be off-loaded by
tipping, dragging, dropping or other
improvised means.
Care is needed when lifting the decking
bundles; protected chain slings are
recommended. Unprotected chain slings can
damage the bundle during lifting; when
synthetic slings are used there is a risk of the
severing them on the edges of the decking
sheets.
If timber packers are used, they should be
secured to the bundle before lifting so that
when the slings are released they do not fall
to the ground (with potentially disastrous
results). Bundles must never be lifted using
the metal banding.

Where necessary, sheets may be cut using a
grinder or a nibbler. However, field cutting
should be kept to a minimum and should
only be necessary where a column or other
obstruction interrupts the decking. Gaps
adjacent to the webs of columns should be
filled in with off-cuts or thin strips of steel.
Decking sheets shown as continuous on the
decking layout drawing should never be cut
into more than one length. Also, sheets
should never be severed at the location of a
temporary support, and the decking should
never be fastened to a temporary support.
As the work progresses, unwanted scraps
and off-cuts should be disposed of in a skip
placed alongside the appropriate level of
working. The skip should be positioned
carefully over a support beam to avoid
overloading the decking If a skip is not
available, scraps should be gathered for
collection by the main contractor as soon as
is possible. Partially used bundles should be
secured, to avoid individual sheets moving in
strong winds.
