A structural member section is provided that may be comprised of horizontal top and bottom flange elements interconnected by one or more vertical web members. The top flange of the member is serrated such that a series of serrations protrude horizontally in at least one direction from a top of the one or more vertical web members or are cut-out from the flange of a rolled shape. In one embodiment, the serrated top flange and at least a portion of the web member are intended to be encased by a horizontal concrete slab or slab-on-deck assembly. Portions of one embodiment of a built-up structural member may be incorporated into a structural flooring panel assembly, wherein a portion is attached at each end of a deck length and the portions can be bolted together on site to form a complete built up structural member and the deck spanning between.
