Design of Steel Deck for Concentrated and Nonuniform Loading

January 15

Roof and floor decks with elevated slabs are typically designed for uniform loads. However, real-world conditions, such as accommodating collateral loads or equipment, often deviate from this idealized scenario. This presentation will help you assess existing systems or design new ones to handle non-uniform load considerations effectively.

This webinar is provided by the Steel Joist Institute in partnership with the Steel Deck Institute. Participants can earn 1.5 PDHs.
