Why Type B Metal Deck Works for Restaurants

Type B metal deck is a proven structural profile for commercial roofs and elevated slabs; it supports roofing membranes, concrete toppings, and mechanical equipment loads commonly found in restaurant projects. For Florida restaurants, the deck's light weight and high strength provide cost-effective spans for kitchens, grease exhaust penetrations, and rooftop HVAC units while enabling proper fire separation, sound control, and insulation assembly.

We provide full-service delivery: site assessment, engineering, material procurement, shop drawings, prefabrication where appropriate, and certified installation. Our crews coordinate with roofing, HVAC, and kitchen contractors to manage penetrations and flashing details. Typical installations are staged to reduce downtime; many restaurant roof projects complete in days rather than weeks depending on scope.

Compliance and Hurricane Performance

Miami Metal Deck builds to Florida Building Code standards and follows Miami-Dade County acceptance practices when required. We specify hurricane-rated attachments, high-strength fasteners, and corrosion protection such as hot-dip galvanizing or factory coatings to meet coastal exposure. Where applicable we provide shop drawings stamped by a licensed engineer and materials tested to ASTM standards.

We offer material and workmanship guarantees and partner with reputable metal suppliers that provide mill certifications. Routine inspections, rapid replacement of damaged panels, and preventative maintenance plans extend service life in Florida's humid, salt-rich environment.

Cost, Schedule, and Project Delivery

Cost depends on deck gauge, span, galvanization level (G60 vs G90), site access, and integration with roofing systems. We provide transparent estimates and value engineering options to optimize cost without sacrificing code compliance or durability.

Our teams are OSHA trained, insured, and experienced with restaurant schedules. We minimize downtime through night or phased work, maintain strict quality control, and back installations with warranties and documented engineering to support permits and inspections.
