Abstract :
Composite steel concrete slabs that have integral steel shuttering at the soffit of a reinforced concrete slab are common place in building infrastructure. The composite construction is lighter, stronger and economical when compared to conventional construction method. The cold form profiled sheet act as a platform for during the construction phase act as an external reinforcement after the construction. The strength parameters of M20 grade of concrete will use for slab which was place over the reinforcement and the mild steel profile sheet are act formwork concreting. The size of profile sheet is 1.25m height and 350mm wide and 80mm thickness. The deck slab having steel bottom with galvanized coating does not provide much connection between steel and concrete. Anticorrosive paint is used on the bottom of trapezoidal profile sheet. It's used for to avoid the corrosion of profile steel sheet. The main objective of this study is to use the profile sheet along with nominal reinforcement in order to improve the strength and aesthetic appearance etc. To improve the bonding strength of steel sheet with concrete by providing shear connector.

Keywords : Composite deck slab, profile steel sheet, shear connector, concrete reinforcement.
