At Technic Concrete Floors, we supply and install commercial metal decking as part of our full concrete flooring service for commercial and industrial construction projects. Used in a wide range of commercial builds, metal decking supports suspended concrete slabs and provides a reliable, permanent framework that speeds up installation without compromising strength or quality.
Commercial Metal Decking consists of steel sheets fixed to a building’s structural frame to support concrete floor slabs. During concrete pouring, the decking acts as a framework, holding the wet concrete in place. Once the concrete has set, the decking remains as part of the structure, adding strength and stability to the floor.
This method speeds up construction by removing the need for temporary supports and provides a durable, reliable base for suspended concrete floors. At Technic, we supply and install metal decking on a wide range of commercial projects where both structural performance and efficient installation are essential.
Â
At Technic Concrete Floors, we do more than install commercial metal decking.
Our full service includes concrete laser screed to create a level surface, concrete saw cutting to control cracking and concrete cube testing to verify strength.
Â
We also provide concrete steel fixing to prepare reinforcement before pouring. Depending on your needs, we offer internal concrete flooring and external concrete flooring.
Â
Offering all these services together helps keep your project coordinated and reduces any delays.
Commercial metal decking combined with concrete floors creates floors that can carry heavy commercial traffic and allow longer spans between beams. This provides design flexibility and durable performance.
This system is well suited for car parks, warehouses and commercial units where strength and speed are paramount. By managing both decking and concrete work, we can help your project keep on schedule, ring us today on 01942 679100 or email at info@technicfloors.co.uk.
Pouring concrete onto metal decking requires careful planning. The pump setup, hose layout and space for delivery vehicles all need to be arranged in advance to avoid delays. Access through the building, including window openings or scaffolding gaps, should be checked for any obstructions.
Safe movement for operatives and equipment must be considered, with handrails and edge protection in place. Nearby structures and working areas should be protected from concrete splashes. Clear safety zones help prevent disruption from other trades and keep the pour running safely and on schedule.
Concrete pours onto metal decking must be carefully managed to protect both site teams and the public. Planning includes a designated washout area for delivery vehicles and pumps to contain any concrete residue.
Â
Using mobile pumps safely may require banksmen, extra supervision, or two-way radios to keep communication clear and site activity controlled. To support the demand for composite floors, we work with design engineers to provide purpose-made metal formed construction joints that stay in place and support ongoing safety.
Â
We bring the same level of care to every job, whether it’s a commercial unit or large-scale education project. You can see the results of our work across the UK on our projects page and gallery.
Â
On school projects in Bradford, Technic Concrete Floors installed over 1,000 linear metres of permanent construction joint formwork, allowing underfloor heating pipes to pass cleanly through the joints. This avoided any concrete overflow and removed the need to strip formwork around congested areas.
Â
We also used smooth, rounded pans so pumping pipes could sit safely on reinforced decking without damaging the steel or heating system. This made it easier to move pipes during the pour and helped keep the floor casting efficient and controlled
As members of the concrete society, we follow approved guidance for composite concrete slabs on metal decking.
Â
Our team is trained to work safely on metal decking, with qualifications in working at height, fall arrest and harness use. All supervisors hold SSSTS certification.
Â
We work closely with clients, CDM coordinators and principle contractors, supported by our health and safety advisors at Stallard Kane Associates LTD, to make sure every job is carried out safely and professionally.
Our commercial metal decking services are used across the UK in car parks, retail developments, warehouses and industrial units. Each project is handled by our experienced in-house team. We take care of decking alongside Industrial concrete flooring and Commercial concrete flooring, managing every element from start to finish.
Â
This approach keeps your schedule on track and ensures consistency across the job.
