Applications include commercial, industrial and residential buildings.  \nThis guide covers the design and construction of composite slabs and beams and addresses the good practice aspects of these activities. The practice presented is typical of the current [U.K. market](U.K. market), and has developed over time in order to deliver the best results. It is therefore recommended that contractual arrangements for specific projects are aligned with these recommendations. This revision updates the previous MCRMA/SCI guide, which was published in 2000 and updated in 2009. This second update reflects the latest guidance for good practice and gives information on design to the Eurocodes as well as design to BS 5950, including comment on some changes that will be reflected in the so-called Generation 2 Eurocodes.  \nThe standalone Section related to the design and construction of shallow floor construction that was contained in previous editions of this publication has been omitt","cbCaidJyivS3wkkS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidJyivS3wkkS","pdf",10460572,134,"English","# Foreword\n# Executive Summary\n# Introduction\n## Benefits of composite construction Applications\n## Scope of this publication\n# The Design and Construction Team\n## Duty holders\n## Roles in design and construction Design and construction sequences\n# Information Transfer\n## Design stage\n## Construction stage\n## 3D Modelling\n# Design of Decking and Slabs\n## Steel decking\n## Composite slabs\n## Acoustic insulation\n## Further reading\n# Design of Composite Beams","[{\"question\":\"What does this guide cover for composite construction?\",\"answer\":\"It covers the design and construction of composite slabs and beams, focusing on good-practice aspects of these activities.\"},{\"question\":\"Which standards and design references are included?\",\"answer\":\"It gives design information aligned with the Eurocodes and also design to BS 5950, including notes on changes leading to Generation 2 Eurocodes.\"},{\"question\":\"What has changed compared with earlier editions?\",\"answer\":\"This update reflects the latest good-practice guidance and omits the standalone section on shallow floor construction that was present in previous editions.\"}]","COMPOSITE SLABS AND BEAMS USING STEEL DECKING - GOOD PRACTICE FOR DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION - Publication P300 | PDF",1792850172,338]
