2. Orthotropic deck - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthotropic_deck

   An orthotropic bridge or orthotropic deck is typically one whose fabricated deck consists of a structural steel deck plate stiffened either longitudinally with ribs or transversely, or in both directions. This allows the fabricated deck both to directly bear vehicular loads and to contribute to the bridge structure's overall load-bearing behaviour.

3. Composite construction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_construction

   A composite steel deck combines the tensile strength of steel with the compressive strength of concrete to improve design efficiency and reduce the material necessary to cover a given area. Additionally, composite steel decks supported by composite steel joists can span greater distances between supporting elements and have reduced live load ...

4. Open web steel joist - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_web_steel_joist

   The main function of an OWSJ is to provide direct support for roof or floor deck and to transfer the load imposed on the deck to the structural frame i.e. beam and column. In order to accurately design an OWSJ, engineers consider the joist span between bearing points, joist spacing, slope, live loads , dead loads , collateral loads, seismic ...

5. Deck (building) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_(building)

   A deck is also the surface used to construct a boardwalk over sand on barrier islands. Laying deck or throwing deck refers to the act of placing and bolting down cold-formed steel beneath roofing and concrete floors. This is usually done by an ironworker, sometimes in conjunction with a cement mason or carpenter. It regarded as one of the most ...

   The Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI) has developed standard symbols, graphics, and formats for shop drawings and cut sheets that generally are used by reinforcing steel fabricators. [5] Each fabricator, has particular style for shop drawings and cut sheets, depending on the drafts people and Computer-aided design systems.
