Eco-Friendly Composite Open-type Decking Sheet, Open Design for Easy Drainage

Opened-type decking sheets, also known as profiled steel decks, are essential components in modern steel-framed buildings, serving as permanent formwork for concrete slabs in floor systems. Unlike closed or cellular decks, they feature an exposed, ribbed surface that interlocks with concrete to create a composite structure. Here’s a detailed exploration:

1. The corrugated profile enhances load-bearing capacity, reducing the need for additional formwork or supports during concrete pouring. This speeds up construction and lowers labor costs.

2. When concrete is poured over the deck, the ribs and embossments create a mechanical bond, allowing the steel and concrete to act as a unified system. This composite behavior increases stiffness and reduces deflection, optimizing floor performance.

3. Most sheets are galvanized or coated to resist corrosion, and concrete encasement provides fire protection, meeting safety codes without additional treatments.

4. Applications : Commercial buildings (offices, shopping malls). Industrial facilities (factories, warehouses). Residential complexes (apartments, condominiums). Infrastructure projects (bridges, parking garages).

Opened-type decking sheets offer a blend of speed, strength, and adaptability, making them a cornerstone of modern steel structure flooring. Their integration simplifies construction while delivering durable, high-performance floors.
