Haunched Decks are optimized for heavily loaded marine facilities and industrial structures. The haunched profile, end continuity and oversized shear keys provide an efficient method for resisting large, randomly placed concentrated loads on a deck. Key features of the Haunched Deck include;
-
Haunched ends for a deep composite closure over the pile cap, high resistance to shear stresses, and reduced concrete release strengths
-
Continuity over the pilecap to resist service loads through the welding of projecting rebar
-
Oversized shear keys with concrete fill to assure load transfer to adjacent decks
