Abstract: A cost-effective orthotropic deck bridge panel which is capable of being standardized to facilitate the use of orthotropic decks on short span bridges. Inclusion of a concrete deck in the panel simplifies fabrication details, thereby increasing the economic viability of the disclosed orthotropic deck panel in short span bridge projects. Shortcomings in fabrication of steel support ribs of the panel are overcome by using a cold roll-forming process instead of a press brake to form longitudinal bends in sheet material. The cold roll-forming process further allows camber to be introduced in the support ribs, thereby eliminating an extra manufacturing step.

Abstract: An improved building panel with increased stiffness and resistance to buckling is disclosed. The panel cross section is characterized by a novel center portion comprised of radially arranged longitudinal stiffening ribs which transition into side portions configured to allow joining of the panels. The configuration of the panel's center section results in an increased moment of inertia as well as higher resistance to positive and negative bending moments and local buckling when compared to existing designs. Additionally, the panel configuration allows curving longitudinally without corrugations. These improvements in the strength of the panel and the elimination of corrugations reduce design constraints on buildings constructed of such panels and allow larger buildings to be constructed.

Abstract: The composite joist floor system includes joists supported by supporting members. Corrugated steel decking is positioned over the joists such that the corrugations are substantially perpendicular to the joists. Self-drilling, self-tapping, stand-off screws are spaced along the length of the joist, aligned with the deck corrugations. These stand-off screws provide the required shear transfer between the joist and concrete slab to form a composite floor system. The placed concrete encapsulates the upper non-threaded shank portions of the stand-off screws and the end of the joists. After the concrete has cured, the resultant system comprised of steel joists, steel decking, stand-off screws, and concrete, act together to form a composite system with greater load carrying capacity and less vertical deflection. The stand-off screws connect the joist upper chords to the concrete slab allowing the joist and concrete slab to act as a unit, by transferring shear between the two joined components.
