Condeck Composite Slabs have been designed in accordance with CP 114 structural use of reinforced concrete in building, BS 449 Steel Structures Code and CP 117, Part 1 Composite Construction Code.
1. The slabs are designed as one way concrete slabs in which the whole area of the Condeck section is considered to act as positive tensile reinforcement.
2. The slab properties (Tables 5 & 6) are based on:
(i) Ultimate Concrete compressive stress Pc = 25 N/mm2 and 30 N/mm2 (iij Permissible stress = 11.0 and 13.5 N/mm2
(iii) Modular ratio n = 8.5 and 7.5
Note: Tables for F'c values of 20 N/mm2 are available on request.
3. Maximum span to depth ratios for composite slabs have been taken as: (i) Simple span ..b. = 33
d
(iij Double span.]; = 35 d
(iii) Continuous span ..b. = 39 (greater than 2 spans) d
4. Bond between the Con deck and the concrete is assumed to exist only along the periphery of the ribs and is calculated as 0.50 N/mm2.
5. Deflection limitation under superimposed load is SPAN
480
SIMPLE DESIGN - SIMPLY SUPPORTED SPANS (No Negative Reinforcement) The composite Condeck and concrete slab is assumed to be a series of single span one way slabs. This is simple to design and requires only secondary reinforcement (Table 2) or distribution mesh in the top of the slab to reduce surface cracking due to shrinkage.
For Condeck slabs the minimum secondary reinforcement is based on the concrete area above the Condeck ribs.

For further information and slab selection, see Tables 6 (b) and 7 (b).
CONDECK PROPPING
During concrete placement, the Condeck has to withstand the weight of the wet concrete plus temporary construction loads. The allowance for construction loads is 1.5 kN/m2. Temporary propping to Condeck (Table 3) is required for any of the following:
It 1. Under the weight of the wet concrete, the deflection of the Condeck exceeds Span/240.
2. For 2 or more temporary props the deflection between props exceeds 3mm.
3. Under the weight of the wet concrete plus the constructional load allowance, the allowable section moment capacities are exceeded. (See Table 4)
1. An allowance should be made for the extra mass of concrete due to Condeck panel deflection, for long unpropped spans.
2. The deflection limitation of SPAN/240 can be relaxed to the greater of the abovementioned criteria in particular cases, but the final decision is left to the discretion of the Structural Engineer.
3. When using temporary props, especially if the Con deck soffit is to be left exposed as a ceiling feature, it is recommended that a piece of caneite or similar material be placed between the prop timber bearer and the
Con deck panel to reduce the effect of unsightly "propping lines".
4. * ~ ratio governs.
5. Concrete density assumed as follows: 25 Grade = 2400 kg/rn3
30 Grade = 2400 kg/m3
6. The temporary props must be' left in place until the concrete has reached at least 70% of its design strength. The full design load Should not be applied until the design strength is attained.
Temporary props and bearers in position ready to support the Condeck panels and wet concrete load.

1. Propping recommendations in Tables 6 (a) and 6 (b) are as per Table 3 for single span and continuous span Condeck respectively.
2. No adjustment to the allowable superimposed load is required if "propping" or "non-propping" is undertaken in accordance with Tables 6 (a) and 6 (b).
However should a designer adopt a temporary prop for a span that Tables 6 (a) and 6 (b) indicates requires no such extra support, then the allowable superimposed load as indicated in Tables 6 (a) and 6 (b) has to be reduced by the slab's self weight.
