Benefits of composite metal deck
- Rapid speed of construction, reducing overall project time
- Provides the tensile reinforcement requirements of the slab
- Composite Construction reduces steelwork frame weight
- Reduced foundation costs, due to reduced loading
- Integral ceiling and service fixing system
- The decking acts as permanent shuttering
- Provides a cover for following trades
- When fixed, the decking provides a safe working platform
- Minimal site storage requirements
- Easily installed into complex designs, with minimal wastage
- Can achieve up to 4hr fire rating for the slab
