Mar 8, 2012 #8 msquared48 Structural Aug 7, 2007 14,745 On a 24" span, sounds like it might be formdeck with a concrete infill for the 2" depth. Formdeck, at 1/2" to 1" deep, is not structural but for use as a permanent form only, and it is non-composite. Mike McCann MMC Engineering http://mmcengineering.tripod.com Upvote 0 Downvote
