DECK FIXINGImmediately after laying, the deck must be fi xed through its trough to the top of the supporting structure. Powder actuated pins or self-drilling screws are used. Side lap fi xings are required at 1000mm centres for all profi les.

Casting concreteBefore the concrete is poured, the decking must be cleared of all dirt and grease, which could adversely infl uence the performance of the hardened slab. The oil left on the decking from the roll forming process does not have to be removed. Concrete should be poured evenly, working in the direction of span. Care should be taken to avoid heaping of concrete in any area during the casting sequence. Construction and day joint should occur over a support beam, preferably also at a deck joint.

Temporary supportsThe safe design and installation of temporary props is the responsibility of the main contractor or designated sub contractor. Where temporary supports are required by the design, these must provide continuous support to the profi led sheeting. Spreader beams (timbers) are used, supported by temporary props at one metre centres.

Edge trimThis is used to retain the wet concrete to the correct level at the decking perimeters. It is fi xed to the supports in the same manner as the deck and the top is restrained by straps at 600mm centres, which are fi xed to the top of the deck profi le by steel pop rivets or self drilling screws,
