Types of Form Deck for Your Next Project

November 16, 2022

Metal form deck is often used in floor construction by serving as a permanent steel base for poured, reinforced concrete slabs. This is why form deck is very practical, easy and fast to install while also being affordable.

Form deck does not have embossment and is not interlocked within the structure, as opposed to composite deck. Instead, it supports the weight of wet concrete that is poured to create the flooring systems.

At CSM Metal Deck, we stock ready-to-ship and custom manufacture form deck for your construction project. If you are going to be working with a metal form deck, it is imperative to understand the different types you can get. In this article, we will review three different metal form decks:

  • 9/16″
  • 1″
  • 1.5″

Different Types of Form Deck

9/16″ Form Deck

CSM Metal Deck’s 9/16″ Form Deck supports construction spans from 1 foot to 11 feet in distance, depending upon the gauge and back-span condition (single, double, triple). We stock and manufacture 0.6FD form deck in 26, 24, and 22 gauge.

1″ Form Deck

Similarly to the 9/16″ form deck, CSM Metal Deck’s 1″ Form Deck supports construction spans from 1 foot to 11 feet in distance, varying on the gauge and back-span condition, that can be single, double, or triple. At CSM Metal Deck, we stock and manufacture 1.0FD and 1.0FDV types of form deck in 24, 22, and 20 gauge.

1.5″ Form Deck

CSM Metal Deck’s 1.5″ Form Deck supports construction spans from 1 foot to 11 feet in distance, depending upon the gauge and back-span condition (single, double, triple). We stock and manufacture type 1.5″ form deck in 22, 20, 18, and 16 gauge.
