Metal Decking in Detroit: what to expect
Metal decking in Detroit is the corrugated steel deck laid over steel joists or beams to form a roof or floor. Roof deck is fastened to support insulation and roofing. Composite floor deck works with welded shear studs and a concrete topping to act as a floor slab. Warehouses, schools, retail and mid-rise buildings across Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties use it.
Deck is installed by ironworkers right behind the steel erection crew. Sheets are spread, aligned, and fastened by welds, screws or powder-actuated pins per the engineer's pattern, with side laps, edge closures and openings detailed on the drawings. MIOSHA rules require deck to be laid tightly and secured as soon as it is placed.
Pair decking with steel joist installation and compare Metro Detroit ironworkers.
