What is it about?
A set of composite floors, each comprising five beams, was tested in order to evaluate how some parameters might affect the load distribution. These results were compared to those obtained with a numerical model developed by the authors.

Why is it important?
Some aspects of the structural behaviour timber–concrete floors are still not fully known. This is the case of transverse load distribution for point and line loads. This article presents a study on timber–concrete floors subjected to point and line loads.
