What is Metal Deck Formwork/Edgework?
Metal Deck, commonly known as Condeck/Bondeck, is a specific type of metal decking used in formwork systems for concrete construction. The system is designed to provide both formwork and a structural component in the construction of suspended slabs. Composite Support Systems Victoria offers strong, reliable metal deck laying for various projects.
Metal deck formwork, also known as Condeck or Bondeck, is widely used in modern construction to support concrete slabs. This system is a popular choice for:
- Commercial buildings
- Industrial facilities
- High-rise structures
It offers an efficient, durable solution that strengthens suspended slabs while acting as a permanent formwork.
Composite Support Systems Victoria also specialises in the supply and installation of Slimdek products, ensuring your project receives tailored support with top-quality materials.
Advantages of Metal Deck Laying
- Design and Structure: Condeck/Bondeck panels are typically made from high-strength galvanised steel. They feature a corrugated profile that enhances their strength and rigidity, allowing them to support the weight of wet concrete and construction loads.
- Formwork and Support: The Condeck/Bondeck system acts as both a formwork (the mould for pouring concrete) and a structural element of the building. Once the concrete has cured, the metal decking remains as a part of the structural system, forming a composite slab with the concrete.
- Ease of Installation: Condeck/Bondeck panels are designed for quick and efficient installation. They can be laid out and secured in place, allowing for the concrete to be poured directly onto the decking. This can help to speed up the construction process and reduce labour costs.
- Load-Bearing Capacity: The design of Condeck/Bondeck panels provides excellent load-bearing capacity, which is crucial for supporting the weight of concrete and construction activities during the building phase.
- Durability: The metal decking is durable and resistant to various environmental factors, contributing to the overall longevity of the structure.
- Cost-Effectiveness: By serving as both formwork and a structural element, Condeck/Bondeck can help to reduce the overall costs of construction.
