- Two profiles: WS 1000-50-3 and WS 900-75-3
- Thickness 0.58–1.60 mm, G300–450
- Acts as formwork and reinforcement
- Embossed webs for composite action
Formwork and reinforcement in one
Steel decking is laid on the beams as a working platform, carries the wet concrete as permanent formwork and then works with the slab as tension reinforcement. With shear studs welded through to the beams, deck, slab and beams act compositely – lighter floors and faster construction for multi-storey buildings and mezzanines.

Unpropped spans and slab capacities depend on deck thickness, slab depth and loads – ask for the span tables for your design code.

Frequently asked questions
Does the deck need props?
Up to the unpropped span for the chosen deck and slab no props are needed; longer spans need temporary propping during concreting.
