In order to eliminate the defects of reinforced-concrete decks in terms of material, the steel-straped deck system is developed by maximizing the arching effect while the girders are restrained using straps in lateral direction to the bridge. In this paper, nonlinear FEA are performed for various parameters such as slab thickness, span length, strap spacing and sectional area, etc. in order to derive the equation to design the deck slab with steel-strap considering the minimum thickness of Korean design standards.
