Metal Deck
Part of our group of steel companies, AMDECK™ offers the highest grade, premium strength composite metal decking in the UK, offering oustanding performance and excellent value. AMDECK can be supplied and installed by MLB Steel, or acquired as part of a structural steel project.
We offer three decking ranges to suit the majority of metal deck designed structures in the UK. We have two trapezoidal decks, AMDECK 60 and AMDECK 80 and one re-entrant deck, AMDECK 54. Each of our profiles is available in 0.9mm or 1.2mm gauge, all at 600mm wide, making them lightweight and easy to handle.
The AMDECK™ range features unique, patented embossments and other design properties that deliver exceptional structural performance. This means that a thinner gauge deck can sometimes be used instead of other equivalent deck, leading to material savings and lower project costs.
Composite steel deck is designed for use with structural concrete and is manufactured with mechanical embossments in the webs to create mechanical and chemical bond between the deck and the concrete.
The composite action allows the deck to serve as the tensile reinforcement for positive bending in the slab, which significantly reduces or eliminates the need for rebar in the slab and lowers material and labour costs.
The strength and durability of the steel provides a solid platform for construction on top of open web joists, structural steel, light gauge framing, or masonry walls. The deck acts as a form for the concrete and is typically designed so that shoring is not required.
