These figures are calculated in accordance with the latest revision of BS5950-3 Section 3.1:1990 +A1 2010. The factors in this table should be applied to the minimum resistance for a stud in a solid slab (Qk) from Table 5 of BS5950-3 Section 3.1:1990 +A1 2010.

: 1 = Figures are based on 95mm LAW shear studs except TR80+ which is based on 120mm LAW.

: 2 = All factors are based on ‘mesh at nominal top cover’, except Parallel which is based on ‘below head of stud’
