Multi-Storey Steel Frame with Composite Metal Deck Slabs, Roof Trusses, and Driven Pile Foundations

This solution details a multi-storey steel frame structure featuring composite metal deck slabs (Comflor) supported by secondary UB beams and primary UC columns. The roof system incorporates specialized steel trusses utilizing EC main chords and SHS web members.

Key engineering challenges addressed include lateral stability through a sway frame designed for wind loads and specific roof bracing configurations. The design covers primary and secondary steel member sizing, truss member selection, and deep foundation design using 750mm diameter driven piles to 30m depth with pile caps.

Deliverables include typical floor plans, roof bracing layouts, sectional elevations, and detailed connection and ground slab construction drawings.
