An A992 W18x40 supports a steel deck oriented perpendicular to the beam. The total slab thickness is 5-inches and the rib height is 2-inches, thus leaving a concrete thickness above the deck of 3-inches. Assume two shear stubs per rib. The concrete is normal weight and fc = 5 ksi. The beam span is 30' and the spacing of the beams is 6-feet on-center. Determine how many 5/8-inch shear studs would be required perhalfofthe span to ensure that this section is fully composite. Show all work.
