Why Type B Metal Deck for Government Projects

Government and military projects demand proven materials with certificable performance. Type B metal deck offers high strength-to-weight ratio, consistent span capability, and proven compatibility with security and continuity-of-service requirements. Specifying Type B enables predictable structural design, simplified inspections, and straightforward integration with concrete toppings, fireproofing, and mechanical systems commonly found in federal and municipal buildings.

Miami Metal Deck has experience producing decks to meet project-specific load tables and third-party inspection requirements. We prepare shop drawings, material test reports, and erection sequencing to support government submittals and compliance reviews. Our teams are familiar with procurement documentation common to state and federal contracts and can adapt production to prevailing wage or union specifications where required.

Materials, Fabrication, and Compliance

We fabricate Type B metal deck from high-quality steel with protective coatings selected for coastal Florida environments. Materials are sourced to meet recognized industry standards and are manufactured with dimensional control, weld quality, and coating thickness checks. Where projects require it, we produce decks to meet wind-resistance and corrosion criteria relevant to Miami-Dade County and state building codes.

Our fabrication process includes calibrated roll-forming, precision nesting, label tracing, and QA documentation. We can supply galvanized, pre-painted, or specialty coated finishes to extend service life in marine atmospheres and ensure long-term asset protection for government and military facilities.

Installation, Testing, and Warranty

Certified installers perform deck layout, anchor and splice installation, and integration with insulation and waterproofing as applicable. We follow documented erection procedures, maintain safety plans, and coordinate with inspectors for in-progress testing such as fastener pull tests, weld inspections, and flatness verification.

Miami Metal Deck backs installations with workmanship warranties and can coordinate third-party inspection or testing on request. Our warranty packages and QA protocols are designed to align with owner expectations for durability, maintenance planning, and lifecycle cost control.
