Cold Roll Formed Steel Decking |
Steel Deck is made by Cold Forming structural grade steel sheet into a repeating pattern of parallel ribs. The Deck Profile configuration can be used to interlock concrete and steel.
Advantages of Composite Slabs
Steel and concrete composite slabs are stronger than most conventional slabs. The Steel Decking provides tensile reinforcement, combining with the compressive strength of the concrete for an all round stronger slab. Steel Decking Profiles are designed to prevent any longitudinal slip between the steel and concrete in the slab itself, and any transverse movement between the slab and supporting beams.
A composite slab effectively acts as a safe working platform. Once the slab is cast, subsequent trades can get on with their jobs below almost immediately. At the same time, work can continue unhindered on the floors above, allowing simple installation of services. Cable trays, duct work and service pipes can be suspended neatly underneath the slab with purpose designed clips, brackets and hangers that locate easily and quickly into recesses in the steel decking profile.
Applications
- Steel Deck for Mezzanine floors
- Tensile steel for composite slab construction that cuts on slab thickness and dead weight of buildings. No separate formwork required for slab casting.
Bearing
- The minimum bearing for metal decking is 50mm on steel work. For Concrete or masonary work this shall be 75mm.
Fixing
- At ends, fixing @300mm centers is recommended. At intermediate supports, fixing may be done @600mm centers. Fixing to steel work may be done using shot fired mails or self drilling, self-tapping screws. Slot may be cut in the decking to allow for the concrete encasement of beams
- The overall width is 840mm and effective width is 812mm and length can be varied to suit job condition, but due to shipping considerations, it is generally kept less than 6mtr..
