A concrete fillable steel joist includes a generally U-shaped member and a top chord. The generally U-shaped member has spaced apart webs and a bottom chord. The top chord is operably attached to the U-shaped member. The top chord has a plurality of spaced apart top chord holes. The U-shaped member and the top chord define a volume that is fillable with concrete when opposed ends of the U-shaped member have joist ends operably attached thereto. The joist ends may be a pair of end plates. Alternatively, the joist ends may be structural members. A concrete fillable steel joist system includes a plurality of spaced apart concrete fillable steel joists, and metal decking. The metal decking is operably attached between the spaced apart steel joists. The concrete fillable steel joist and the metal decking are configured to receive concrete.

Steel installation parts can replace predetermined regions of reinforced concrete components provided for receiving loads, in particular reinforced concrete beams. The steel installation parts can be arranged in a less dense construction without losing bearing capacity, in order to create space for technical installation elements such as lines, cables and channels.

The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus embeddable in a surface. Such surfaces may be formed from any material known in the art of construction, such as, but not limited to, concrete, asphalt, composite rubber, or mud. The apparatus may include a graphical element for display. The apparatus may include frames supporting the graphical element. The frames may include trusses disposed between and upper and a lower surface of the frames. The frame may further include one or more tabs at the upper surface to provide clearance between the upper surface and the graphic element.

The present invention relates to a combination structure of permanent forms and a prefabricated steel assembly for a steel concrete composite member, the combination structure including: the prefabricated steel assembly having a plurality of shape steel members and a plurality of support bars; and each permanent form having a flat plate, ‘L’-shaped protrusions, a bent corner, and a ‘L’-shaped outer protrusion.

A dry connection prefabricated assembly steel-concrete composite beam, comprising a steel beam (400), a concrete slab (300) composed of steel bars (301) and concrete, a steel plate connector (100) composed of a steel plate (101), shear connection pieces (102) and connection rods (103), and a pair of inter-plate connection pieces respectively composed of an upper connection plate (501), a lower connection plate (502), a horizontal connection plate (503), a triangular reinforcing steel plate (504) and first and second shear connection pieces (505, 507). An upper surface of each horizontal connection plate (503) is vertically connected to the upper connection plate (501) and the first shear connection pieces (505), a lower surface is vertically connected to the lower connection plate (502), the triangular reinforcing steel plate (504) is welded between a lower surface of the horizontal connection plate (503) and a side surface of the lower connection plate, and one side surface of the upper connection plate (501) is horizontally connected to the second shear connection pieces (507). Both ends of the steel bars (301), which are laterally preset within the concrete slab (300), are provided with screw threads, and the screw thread ends of the steel bars respectively pass through bolt holes (509) and work holes (5010) arranged at upper ends of the upper connection plates (501) to be fixedly connected via screw nuts (302). The composite beam reduces on-site workload, and facilitates disassembly.

The invention relates to a supporting beam, in particular of composite design, for slab systems, in particular of composite design, wherein the supporting beam extends in a longitudinal direction and has: a support extending in the longitudinal direction, in particular a steel support, which is formed in at least two pieces and has at least two support parts which each extend in the longitudinal direction.

A structural member section is provided that may be comprised of horizontal top and bottom flange elements interconnected by one or more vertical web member. 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 member 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. The slab material is capable of encasing all exposed surfaces of and curing around each serration to transfer horizontal shear forces between the serrated top flange and the slab material such that the member and slab behave compositely without needing additional reinforcing located within the voids between serrations.
