Abstract
Corrugated metal decking has been widely used in the construction industry for many years due to its benefits towards the sustainability, improve time performance of the projects and environmental aspects. This article includes the investigation of tensile strength and identify the failure behaviour of different corrugated surface profile of the metal decking that innovated for structural slab. Novelty of this research is the discovery of the tensile performance of a cold rolled corrugated metal decking profiles at various points of interest for a composite flooring system. Tensile strength specimen preparation complies with the ASTM E8 Standard. A total of 60 specimens with different thicknesses and different parts of metal deck have been tested by the universal testing machine (UTM). The findings on how Base Metal Thickness (BMT) affects the tensile strength and the unique roll formed of the corrugated metal decking system, with 0.75BMT & 1.00BMT, are discussed and analysed in this article. Results showed that the average tensile strength value for 0.75BMT and 1.00BMT from part A was 592.47MPa and 554.41MPa, respectively, and the metal decking is up to the designed strength and the unique roll forming embossment provides better bonding quality between concrete and steel to be used in the industry.
