Title: Systeme de plancher a poutrelle composite
Inventor: STUDEBAKER GLENN WAYNE
IPC: E04B5/00
Filed: 2009-01-22
Abstract: Ce système de plancher à poutrelle composite comprend des poutrelles soutenues par des éléments de support. Un platelage d'acier ondulé est placé sur les poutrelles de sorte que les ondulations sont en grande partie perpendiculaires aux poutrelles. Des vis autoperceuses, autotaraudeuses et entretoises sont présentes le long des poutrelles, en étant espacées les unes des autres et alignées sur les ondulations du platelage. Ces vis fournissent le transfert de cisaillement requis entre les poutrelles et la dalle de béton afin de former un système de plancher composite. Le béton enrobe la partie supérieure non filetée des tiges des vis ainsi que l'extrémité des poutrelles.  Une fois que le béton a durci, le système obtenu comprend des poutrelles d'acier, un platelage d'acier, des vis entretoises et du béton. Tous ces éléments agissent ensemble afin de former un système composite avec une meilleure résistance à la flexion et une déformation moindre. Les vis entretoises relient les membrures supérieures des poutrelles à la dalle de béton, permettant ainsi aux poutrelles et à la dalle de béton d'agir ensemble en transférant le cisaillement entre ces éléments liés.
