Concentrated Loads on Metal Deck Slabs

Design Guide for Concentrated Loads on Metal Deck Slabs SCNZ - 11:2006

Bulk retail projects require robust floor systems capable of sustaining high floor loading including concentrated loads from racking systems.
Design guidance has been prepared to assist structural engineers design metal deck slabs for this and other types of applications where concentrated loading is present.
In addition, design software, SteelDeck 1.0 has been developed based on the methodology discussed in this guide.

Documentation Code of Practice

Code of Practice for Structural Steelwork Documentation SCNZ - 12:2006

The purpose of SteelDoc: Code of Practice for Structural Steelwork Documentation is to clearly identify what Contract Documents, in particular the Drawings, should contain to get good value out of steel construction in New Zealand.
The aim of SteelDoc: Code of Practice for Structural Steelwork Documentation is to set minimum performance criteria that are readily achievable and reflect common practice in the industry.
This second edition of the Code of Practice is reissued as report SCNZ 12:2006 follwoing incorporation of Steel Construction New Zealand. This second edition includes the software programme SteelDoc.
