Abstract

The behaviour of cold-formed steel deck and concrete composite slab under hogging moment was studied. An experimental programme was performed using 10 specimens of different thickness and reinforcement ratio. The negative moment capacity of each slab predicted using a simple analytical model was compared with that obtained from the experiment. The experimental results indicate that the steel deck contributes to the hogging moment capacity and this region exhibited a fair amount of ductility, which can be utilised for moment redistribution.
