What is the difference between a form deck and a composite deck?

Composite Deck generally refers to a thin gauge, yet high yield strength decking that is designed to enhance the strength of the concrete being poured on top it.

Composite Deck has embossments in the metal designed to interlock and connect to the concrete as it is being poured which then adds to the strength of the floor structure as part of the design.

Here at StructuralDeck.com, we only offer Form Deck.

This deck simply has a standard smooth surface and is designed only to support the dead weight of the concrete while it is being poured, and then the concrete is self-supported.

Typically, a wire mesh product is used alongside Form Deck to reinforce the concrete to meet the engineered requirements.

We do not offer composite deck.
