Key details on strength, gauge, finish, and depth for the Type HD form deck
Dimensions and Profile Details
| Property | Details |
|---|---|
| Profile Depth | 1 inch |
| Coverage Width | 36 inches |
| Rib Spacing | 4 inches (center to center) |
| Rib Height | 1 inch |
The Type HD Form Deck features a rib depth of 1 inch and a standard coverage width of 36 inches, making it perfect for heavy-duty concrete formwork in floors and roofs. Its rib spacing of 4 inches (center to center) and overall material width of 39 inches ensure secure overlaps and excellent concrete support. This profile is designed to handle greater loads while reducing material costs, providing strength and durability for demanding construction projects.
Gauge
| Gauge | Bare Steel Thickness (in) | Weight (lbs/sq ft) | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| 26 | 0.0179 | 0.75 | Light-duty concrete formwork, low-load floors. |
| 24 | 0.0239 | 1.0 | Standard floors, light industrial applications. |
| 22 | 0.0299 | 1.25 | Medium-duty floors, parking structures. |
| 20 | 0.0359 | 1.5 | Heavy-duty formwork, bridges, industrial slabs. |
The Type HD Form Deck is available in a range of gauges, including 26, 24, 22, and 20. Lighter gauges (26 and 24) are cost-effective and ideal for standard concrete slabs and moderate spans. Heavier gauges (22 and 20) provide superior strength and support for longer spans and heavier concrete loads, making them perfect for demanding applications like industrial floors, bridges, and parking structures.
Finish
| Finish Type | Details |
|---|---|
| Galvanized G60 | Zinc coating of 0.6 oz/ft². Recommended for general environments. |
| Galvanized G90 | Zinc coating of 0.9 oz/ft². Ideal for highly corrosive environments. |
| Prime-Painted | Provides a base coat for additional protection or paint adhesion. |
| Bare Steel | Unfinished; typically for indoor use or controlled environments. |
To ensure durability and long-term performance, the Type HD Form Deck is offered in multiple finish options, including galvanized (G60 and G90) and prime-painted. The galvanized coating provides excellent corrosion resistance, with G90 offering a thicker zinc layer for protection in high-moisture or chemical environments. The prime-painted finish adds a protective base coat. G60 and G90 finishes conform to ASTM A653 specifications.
