Deep-Dek®


Description
Canam Canada is pleased to offer new products as part of its comprehensive line of metal deck profiles. Deep-Dek®, produced by Metal Dek Group®, a unit of CSi® (Consolidated Systems Incorporated), comprises a number of metal deck profiles. This product provides architectural and structural designers with a vast array of both composite floor and roof deck options.

The Deep-Dek® system provides support for gravity loads between the joists and/or beams. Once installed, the deck can also be used as a horizontal brace and therefore act as a diaphragm for lateral loads.

Deep-Dek® enables architects and engineers to have increased creative design options and greater flexibility than with standard metal decks since it fulfills structural, acoustical and aesthetic needs. Deep-Dek® allows a design team to specify a highly functional and versatile building element that will also yield construction savings on all roof and floor system projects.

Roof deck
Deep-Dek® is a single-cell (hat) unit that provides a support surface for various types of roofing materials. It can be used as a secondary structural member to provide for lateral force distribution to the structure’s vertical force resisting systems. Deep-Dek® produces a deep-fluted look for exceptional underside aesthetics.

Deep-Dek® is available in a 304.8 mm (12”) cover width. It is available in four steel gauge thicknesses (see load tables), a variety of galvanized coating weights and an array of paint systems, all suited to specific project performance specifications.

Characteristics:
  • Wind resistance, snow loads, seismic loads, etc.
  • Open, unobstructed building ceiling environments
  • Exceptional aesthetics
  • Dek-Knek® self-aligning Sidelap Attachment System that conceals screws
  • Acoustical options (Figures 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6).
