Metal floor decks are used to build floors with a heavy load bearing capacity. Concrete is generally poured over composite floor deck panels to form the floor structure. Use our handy charts to find out the span and gauge of metal floor decking that best suits your particular flooring project.
The decking has a ribbed profile with embossments designed to interlock with concrete slabs, creating a reinforced concrete slab that serves the dual purpose of permanent form and positive reinforcement.
