Why Type B is Ideal for Fire Stations

Type B metal deck is a cost-effective, efficient roof deck option for institutional buildings like fire stations because it spans wide bays, supports roof membrane systems and insulation, and installs rapidly to minimize downtime. Its geometry provides consistent bearing for thermal insulation and mechanical attachments used in fire station roof assemblies.

Long service life and low maintenance make Type B decks attractive for emergency facilities. When paired with G90 galvanization or approved coatings they resist coastal corrosion, and repairs or replacements can be localized to reduce lifecycle costs for municipal budgets.

Compliance, Testing, and Fire Station Requirements

Fire stations require roof systems engineered for both structural and fire performance. We design Type B decks to meet Florida Building Code provisions, applicable NFPA standards, and Miami-Dade wind criteria; we also coordinate with fire-rated roof assembly listings to maintain required fire resistance and code compliance.

Miami Metal Deck delivers full submittals including load tables, stamped shop drawings, material mill certificates, and test reports to streamline permitting and inspections. Our documentation supports architects, engineers, and facility managers during plan review and field verification.

Miami Metal Deck Differentiators

Local fabrication and installer experience set us apart: we provide Florida-based rollforming, trained crews familiar with municipal projects, and quality control procedures that reduce rework. Our team understands local permitting, coastal exposure factors, and delivery logistics.

You can choose supply-only or turnkey installation; we offer engineered shop drawings, BIM details, custom lengths, and project scheduling that aligns with fire station operational needs. Warranties and material traceability are included to support asset management.
