Hi...

How you all...

Hope you are doing well.

Today, we are going to learn how to design a frame as per the BS 8100 and using the
PROKON software.

loads are to be supported, the steel beams may be substituted with cellular beams
or stub-girders (Fig. 4.37). In structures where there is a need to reduce the
depth of ?oor construction, for example tall buildings, the Slim?or system
developed by British Steel can be used. Floor spans are limited to 7.5 m using this
system, which utilises stiff steel beams, fabricated from universal column sections
welded to a steel plate, and deep metal decking which rests on the bottom ?ange of
the beam (Fig. 4.38). Nowadays, almost all composite ?oors in steel framed
buildings are formed using pro?led metal decking and the purpose of the following
sections is to discuss the design of (a) composite slabs and (b) composite beams.
