  Innovative slim floor system for composite constructions
University of Bradford Faculty of Engineering and Informatics
  Research Group: Centre For Sustainable Environments
  Dr X Dai, Prof D Lam
Applications accepted all year round
Composite floor systems are widely used in multi-storey buildings. Conventional composite beams consist of a concrete slab on top of a steel section have been extensively used in current engineering practice.
