Composite Beams
Abstract Composite flexural members are composed of two separate concrete placements that are connected to behave as a single beam element; the separate elements can be either precast or cast-in-place. The most common form is a precast element topped with cast-in-place concrete and include decks on precast bridge beams, or toppings on precast double T or hollowcore, Fig. 10.1. Prestressed composite girders used for bridge structures allow the girders to be placed and then the deck construction continues with the area below generally open to traffic. Double-T and hollowcore beams include topping for finished floors, for additional strength, or to create a floor diaphragm, Fig. 10.2. Section properties for composite members produced with precast elements are provided in the PCI Design Handbook (2017). Stresses in prestressed girders used in bridges are given in the AASHTO Bridge Design Specification (2017).
