Design Considerations: Plate with deformed bar Reinforcement grouted
anchor grouted in Design Considerations: in slab keyway
Can transfer diaphragm shear slab keyway Topping if
Can provide lateral brace for beam Can transfar diaphragm shear Longitudinal required
Potential to develop negative moment in slabs Topping if Can be designed as structural inegrity tie
required bar as req'd.
Fabrication Considerations:
Fabrication Considerations: Clean and simple for both beam and slabs
Dowels from beam may present safety hazard
Plates in beam must align with slab joints
allowing tolerance Erection Considerations:
Bearing
Reinforcement must be tied in place strip
Concrete must be cast around reinforcement
Plate with beaded Bearing Edge form is required for cast-in-place concrete
Erection Considerations: stud anchors strip P.C. or C.I.P.
