Application referring to the effect of continuous deck occurring in the joint used in the ceiling structure

The usage of hybrid structures brings advantages in their application. Structures with appropriately combined materials within the supporting structure are able to withstand higher loads and overcome larger spans. Effective structural solutions can also be achieved by combining materials such as cross laminated timber, concrete, and steel. The result is the achievement of a more efficient construction and at the same time achieve an aesthetic, but also an ecological structure, furthermore, creating a slimmer ceiling structure can ensure financial savings. In order to achieve the maximum use of the potential of the structure, it is necessary to create suitable structural connections. By creating a suitable joint among the ceiling decks and the beam, it is possible to create a load-bearing ceiling structure that behaves like a continuous deck. In this paper, numerical analysis of selected types of joints are performed and compared. During the examination, an adjustment has been made for alternative joint variation. After updating the proportions of components in this specimen, alternative sample of joint was able to withstand loads applied during analysis. Examined joint connection offers alternative to original joint connection.
