Steel deck is typically 38 mm or 76 mm deep, 750 to 900 mm wide, fluted steel sheets used in the construction of a flat roof. The roof deck is the supporting structural member on which the built-up roofing system is placed. Composite floor deck is a similar product to roof deck and is a fluted steel sheet, 38 mm or 76 mm deep. As the name implies, composite deck is a part of the floor structure and has concrete poured on top.
- Steel Roofing
The application of pre-painted sheet steel cladding to a pitched roof is normally termed an architectural roof. This type of roof is differentiated from the low slope structural standing seam roofs in the way they are designed. From Vertical Rib Formed to Standing Seam or Tile Design, Steel Roofing offers a broad spectrum of design opportunities.

Although "Steel" may conjure up images of a heavy, cumbersome material for construction, Lightweight Steel Framing (LSF) from coated sheet steel products is just the opposite. Cold-formed sheet steel is an easy to handle, economical, non-combustible, high quality alternate to more traditional framing materials.
