......1. code you're dealing:.....
Comment:- I think that what you are looking for comes under composite construction. Almost all the codes cover this type of construction. Since it is a composite construction, it is related to steel as well as to concrete and timber and other type of construction
....2. longest composite steel-concrete girder span you've designed:....
Comment:-If you are talking of the girder, it has no special requirement but has to be design to meet up with the strength and service requirements as all other beams; but if you are talking in terms of the steel deck, the longest span to which you could go to for a particular type of deck depends on its section modulus
.....3. type of steel beam (IPE, HEA or ...):.....
Comment:-The type of steel beam to employ depends on your choice, the constraints that you have at the site (ie the head room requirement etc), availability of the structural member and the strength and serviceability requirements
.....4. depth of concrete slab:.....
Comment:- this depends on the span of your floor, the type of deck profile that you are using and the use to which the structure is to be put into. To avoid vibration, the concrete topping should be at least 50mm above the crest of the deck, and if possible, it should be of light weight aggregate.
....5. type of (trapezoidal) deck profile:...
Comment:-There are several types as to their sources and patent. Basically, their design follow same procedure. I am sending you a little manual (through your private e-mail address). This time again, it is in Italian and I believe that that will not present an obstacle to you as you will be able (like absolute)to translate.
....6. total designed load on deck:...
Comment:- The total design load on the deck is to include the self weight of the deck, concrete slab, the services/installations etc and the live load. We have an EXCEL on deck design posted in this forum. Search and locate it and see if it meets up with your needs
.....7. type of structure with instaled girder:...
I did not get your question. Could you please rephrase your question?
If you should have a need for further tips, please post again.
