Composite Deck

SDI & UL Certified • Grade 50 Standard • Custom Cut-to-Fit

Composite metal deck acts as a permanent form for concrete. Once the concrete cures, the deck and concrete work together as a composite unit to resist loads — eliminating or reducing the need for shoring during construction.
