Enables
Shoring Spans of Over 20Ft
The AmDeck® Floor & Roof System implements full 10 inch
deep lightweight steel joists (Gauge 12, 14 or
16 depending on application) to support construction
loads. As a result, the shoring requirements
can be up to 20 feet on centre which is 4x
less than required for competing products, which
significantly reduces overall project construction
costs.
Fully
Reversible
The
AmDeck® Floor & Roof System is fully reversible and
can be stacked either way which reduces labour
time and construction waste on the jobsite.
Small/Compact
Units
Unlike
many competing products the AmDeck®
Floor & Roof System comes in standardized,
small, lightweight modular units. This means
that the system is much easier to use and handle
since pieces are not as large and bulky.
In addition, required sizes also do not need to
be pre-order since quantity can be adjusted to
fit your project needs and leftover forms may
be used for future projects.
Offers
Protection
When
used for roofs, the concrete decking will provide
ample protection against natural disasters such
as tornadoes, hurricanes and fires with a fire
rating of up to 2 hrs. |
Provides
Structure
One-way
concrete floor/roof joists which are formed by
the AmDeck® Floor &
Roof System can span approximately between 30ft
to 35ft using normal concrete mixes and conventional
reinforcing steel. Spans of greater than 40ft
can be achieved using higher strength concrete
and post-tensioned reinforcing cable strands.
High
Performance
The
EPS used in the decking system provides continuous
insulation to your concrete floor/roof which will
provide you with an R-value of between 10- 20
depending on other materials used in conjunction
with the system. The insulation is also highly
effective reducing the amount of noise that travels
from one storey to another.
