  • Ordered Monday evening, delivered Wednesday morning.

    Unbelievable service and accountability. On top of every detail. Ordered Monday evening, delivered Wednesday morning. Only problem is they were earlier than I expected (not a problem). The delivery people were fantastic. All companies should be like this one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the top questions about metal decking material and ordering from Structural Deck.

View All FAQs

  • How much overlap should I allow when ordering my length?

    A minimum of 2″ of overlap is required but we recommend 6″ of overlap.

  • Do you offer same day delivery?

    We offer next day delivery from our Nappanee location. We also offer next day pickup.

  • 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.

  • How do I fasten the decking to my structure?

    Attaching decking is a time-consuming process that requires a good level of accuracy. While some of our customers choose to attach decking using self-tapping screws, we highly recommend using the Hilti nailer method, particularly on larger projects.

    The Hilti Stand-up Handle enables workers to efficiently and accurately attach sheets of decking from an ergonomic upright position as opposed to bent over and manually screwing.

    Screw Locations

    Attaching B-deck and Form deck to either a structural steel beam or bar joist, we recommend using the Hilti DX-9 HSN and DX-9 ESP for each structural support respectively. Remember that you will need to use the appropriate fastener type in each application.

    Screw Overlap

    For attaching sheets of B-deck and FD (Form) deck with a Hilti Stand-up Handle, you must use the red strip Hilti #10 HWH screws to attach the sheets while standing on the upper decking panel. In the diagram, that means standing on the right side for B-deck and on the left for Form deck. Standing on the upper panel applies force to the overlap ensuring a clean connection.

  • What is your return policy?

    We do not accept returns due to all of the metal decking being cut to custom lengths.
