Kept our project on schedule
We needed a quick turnaround on B Decking for the canopy over the main entrance at Grand Design’s new Customer Support Center… [Structural Deck] was able to deliver the material within 2 days of my order and kept our project on schedule.

The best value for metal decking in the Midwest
It has been a wonderful experience working with Structural Deck. From the initial conversation with Brandon to coordinating production with Ken. Their communication was key to assuring our order was ready ahead of schedule and our project was successful.
Their product was priced very competitively, packaged well, and appears flawless. From my experience, Structural Deck is the best value for metal decking in the Midwest. I will be using them again on my next project.
5 stars all the way around
In today’s world of supply chain issues I have come to expect disappointment when ordering building materials. Not so with Structure Deck.
I placed the online order on a weekend, received an email first thing Monday morning confirming the order. That was followed up with a phone call to see if they could deliver that same week.
And to top that off their pricing was on point for a custom cut to length product even compared to my local supply house on stock lengths. 5 stars all the way around. I will definitely use them again.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the top questions about metal decking material and ordering from Structural Deck.
View All FAQsHow is B Deck made?
A coil of steel is loaded and fed into our roll former line, which then gradually along the process transforms the coil from a flat sheet to an engineered profile.
At the end of the line, our machine has a shear which then cuts the piece to your custom length, all within a few seconds.
Can I use 22 gauge B Deck for mezzanine floors?
We recommend that 22ga B Deck be used for roof decking only. This gauge is not optimal for mezzanine decking applications, especially when fastening wood flooring with screws, due to this lighter gauge.
What are the metal deck specs?

In what applications should I choose white bottom over galvanized?
Our White Bottom decking is painted with a brilliant reflective paint similar to the coating on a light fixture. This is recommended when you want the bottom or underside of your structure to have maximum brightness for a work space.
Galvanized decking is generally less cost per square foot but gives the same rated capacity. This can be used for general construction when the decking is covered by a ceiling or the end user is not concerned about brightness.
Galvanized is also recommended for form deck applications as the concrete being formed has moisture and wants to cause premature rust on the decking.
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.
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.
B-deck
FD (Form) Deck
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.
