Deflection Behaviour of Composite Girders with Reduced Height
Composite girders with reduced height and slim floor girders form an attractive alternative to common reinforced concrete beams. However, their economical design suffers from assumptions concerning the effective width of the concrete chord that are not reflecting the real behaviour. This paper reports on experiments of six test girders with large concrete chords as well as on analytical and numerical evaluations of the effective width for such sections. First results promise an advantageous possibility to increase the assumed ratios of the effective width for the design of these sections in serviceability.
