As members of Project Team SC4.T5, the authors of this paper present the main outcomes from the work that are intended for implementation within EN 1994‐1‐1 (Eurocode 4). General design and application rules for shallow floor beams will be presented, with a particular focus on: the classification of the composite cross‐section; non‐linear bending resistance; and the introduction of transverse bars as shear connectors.
