| ComFlor® 51 Steel Decking
A traditional dovetail re-entrant composite floor deck.
The profile provides an excellent mechanical key into the concrete slabs, offering a strong shear bond performance, which is augmented by cross stiffeners located on the profile trough. ComFlor® 51 presents a virtually flat surface and relatively thin slab is required to meet fire design requirements.
Key benefits are:
​
-
Shear studs: The wide trough of ComFlor 51 permits a flexible and efficient placement of shear studs.
-
Fire performance of the composite beams: Even for two hours fire rating, the top flange of the steel beam does not require fire protection, when used with ComFlor 51 composite deck.
-
Under floor services: Services are easy to attach to ComFlor 51, with the ribs presenting a dovetailed recessed groove in the concrete slab at 152.5mm centres. This provides the perfect connection for service hangers via a wedge net or similar type device.
-
Fire performance of the slab: The dovetail presents a very small opening and contributes little to the transfer of heat through the slab in the event of fire. Thus a lesser slab depth is needed for fire design purposes.
