NOTES ABOUT SERVICE LOAD TABLES


The new Canam steel deck catalog includes load tables
based on the 1996 edition of the American Iron and Steel
Institute (AISI) specifications for the design of cold-formed
steel structural members and the recommendations of the
Steel Deck Institute (SDI) Design Manual.
Although the calculations are based on Load and
Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), all the load tables in
this catalog show the service load capacity. These load
tables should be compared with service applied loads and
not with factored applied loads.
For standard steel deck specifications on materials,
design, and installation, please consult the Steel Deck
Institute Design Manual (publication No. 30) and Manual
of Construction with Steel Deck.

WARNING
Although every effort was made to ensure that all data in this catalog
is factual and that the numerical values are accurate to a degree
consistent with current structural design practice, Canam Steel
Corporation does not assume responsibility for errors or oversights
that may result from the use of the information contained herein.
Anyone making use of the contents of this catalog assumes all liability
arising from such use. All suggestions for improvements to this
publication will receive full consideration for future printings.

The latest version of the ASTM A653 standard contains 5 yield strength grades for structural quality steel.
The chemical composition and mechanical properties are also specified for each grade. The steel sheets normally
used to form Canam steel deck correspond to ASTM A653 SS Grade 33. They have a yield strength of 33 ksi
(230 MPa) and a tensile strength of 45 ksi (310 MPa). Steel with a higher yield strength or a different ASTM
designation can be used to meet specific needs, but the tables in this document are all based on a yield strength
of 33 ksi (230 MPa).
AISI specifications for the design of cold-formed steel structural members indicate that the thickness supplied
shall not be less than 95% of the design thickness used. The generally accepted thickness of the zinc coating of
a G90 (Z275) finish is approximately 0.0015 in. (0.04 mm).
Canam steel deck is available with G90 (Z275), G60 (Z180),
or A25 (ZF75) zinc protection as described by the ASTM A653 standard.
A gray polyester paint finish without underlying zinc protection is also
readily available. Upon request, Canam can also provide white finish
paint with an underlying zinc protection of G90, or other types of
material, given sufficient notice.
The P-2432, P-3623, P-3606, and P-3615 deck profiles are
available with embossments to act in composite action with a
concrete slab. The tables for these composite sections show loads
and unshored spans for normal weight concrete and light weight
concrete on separate pages.
The P-2436, P-3606, and P-3615 deck profiles are available
with perforated web elements that reduce noise reverberation when
fiberglass insulation strips are installed according to the assembly
instructions for acoustical deck.
Upon special request to our sales department, we can provide
sheets in lengths of less than 6 ft (1.8 m).

ACOUSTICAL DECK
The vertical surface of these decks is perforated
according to a pattern which allows the absorption of
sound waves. Absorption occurs when the sound waves
go through minuscule holes perforated in the decks web
and subsequently lose their energy by friction. The
amount of absorption depends upon the size, number
and spacing of the holes, as well as the configuration of
the deck and the acoustical material used. All types of
Canams acoustical deck are supplied with fiberglass
insulation pads (AF-110) which assist in absorbing
sound. These pads must be installed at the same time as
the roofing material in order to avoid exposure to bad
weather and loss of acoustical properties.
In order to maintain maximum capacity, the
perforations are only made in the web sections of the
deck. According to our calculations, the capacity of
acoustical deck is equal to 95% of standard deck.

Tests were made in the laboratories of The National


Research Council of Canada in Ottawa, in accordance with
the requirements of ASTM C423, in order to determine the
sound absorption coefficients of our standard acoustical
decks. The coefficient of noise reduction represents the
average coefficient of acoustical absorption of an assembly
composed of perforated steel deck, fiberglass insulation
pads (AF-110), and wood fiber panels used as roofing
material for sound waves of 250, 500, 1,000 and 2,000 Hz.

STEEL DECK P-3615

COMPOSITE

P-3606

COMPOSITE

Canams composite P-3615 and P-3606 are steel decks roll formed to cover 36 in. (914 mm). The
flutes are 1.5 in. (38 mm) deep and are spaced at 6 in. (152 mm) center to center.
The deck can be rolled to length from 6 ft. 0 in. (1.8 m)
to 42 ft. 6 in. (13 m). The narrow flutes provide
enough space to weld headed studs through
the deck to the top of beams or joists that will
then act in composite with the
concrete slab but there
could be a reduction to
the headed stud capacity.
The deck is available with
steel galvanized according to ASTM
standard A653 with a zinc thickness
corresponding to G60 (Z180). Other types of steel
sheet finishes may affect the bond properties between
deck and concrete. Contact our sales department
for more information.
Standard thicknesses are 22 gauge (0.030 or 0.76 mm), 20 gauge (0.036
or 0.91 mm), and 18 gauge (0.048 or 1.21 mm). Standard steel grade conforms to ASTM
standard A653 SS Grade 33 with a yield strength of 33 ksi (230 MPa). Steel grades up to 50 ksi
(350 MPa) and material thickness of 19 gauge (0.042 or 1.07 mm) are available given sufficient delivery time.

SERVICE LOAD TABLES P-3615 COMPOSITE P-3606 COMPOSITE


IMPERIAL
These tables are developed for steel having a yield strength (Fy) of 33 ksi and for concrete with a weight of
145 pounds per cubic foot and with a minimum compressive resistance (fc) of 3 ksi at 28 days.
Example: Multiple spans of 6-0, total slab thickness of 4.0 with 2.5
of concrete cover on top of the 1.5 deck profile.

From the table below, the moment of inertia of the composite slab in

the example is 4.2 in.4 when the elastic modulus used for deflection
calculations equals 29,500 ksi.

During construction, the steel deck must support itself, the concrete,
and the construction uniform load of 20 lbs./ft.2 or a transversal load
of 150 plf specified by the Steel Deck Institute for multiple spans.
The maximum unshored span shown in the table is checked for
bending under the self weight and the construction loads, for web
crippling with a 3 long bearing, and for the deflection under wet
concrete to be less than span/180.
According to the table of maximum unshored span below, use a deck
with a nominal thickness of 22 gauge (t = 0.030) with a double or triple
span condition.
If the bearing is shorter than 3, the project engineer shall verify that the
reaction produced by the wet concrete and the construction factored
loads is less than the web crippling factored resistance of the deck for
the reduced bearing:
For example: Interior bearing 3 long with multiple spans:
Pf = maximum of (1.6 x 39 + 1.4 x 20) x 1.2 x 6.0 = 651 lbs.
or (1.6 x 39) x 1.2 x 6.0 + (1.4 x 150) x 0.575 = 570 lbs.
Pa = 954 lbs. (from table)
Pr = Pa x 1.85 x 0.75
Pr = 1324 lbs. > Pf = 651 lbs. selection is O.K. for web crippling
Once the concrete is cured, the composite slab will have to support
these loads:
Deck and concrete
39 psf
Superimposed dead load
30 psf
Superimposed live load
100 psf
Total load to compare in load table:
w = 39 + 30 + 100 = 169 psf
Total capacity should be equal to or greater than the total load:
wa = 231 psf for a span of 6-0, with a 4 slab and 22 gauge steel deck.
wa > w selection is O.K.

Deflection = 5 x wsl x span4

selection is adequate

The project engineer is responsible for specifying the size and location
of the wire mesh in the concrete slab in order to follow current concrete
installation practices.
The loads in the table have been limited to 300 psf. Furthermore, the
composite deck part of fire rated assemblies is limited to a
superimposed load of 250 psf.
Please contact Canam sales personnel when the total uniform loads
exceed 200 psf as this is an indication that significant concentrated
loads will be used on that floor and that the composite slab and its
reinforcing should be verified for the effect of concentrated loads.
The shaded values indicate that the deck should be shored at mid-span
during the pour and the cure of the concrete for those span and
concrete thickness conditions and they should correspond to the
maximum unshored span values shown at the left of the table.

SERVICE LOAD TABLES P-3615 COMPOSITE P-3606 COMPOSITE


METRIC
These tables are developed for steel having a yield strength (Fy) of 230 MPa and for concrete with a weight
of 2 330 kg per cubic meter and a minimum compressive resistance (fc) of 20.7 MPa at 28 days.
Example: Multiple spans of 1800 mm, total slab thickness of 102 mm with
64 mm of concrete cover on top of the 38 mm deck profile.

During construction, the steel deck must support itself, the concrete,
and the construction uniform load of 1 kPa or a transversal load of
2.2 kN/m specified by the Steel Deck Institute for multiple spans.
The maximum unshored span shown in the table is checked for bending
under the self weight and the construction loads, for web crippling with a
76 mm long bearing, and for the deflection under wet concrete to be less
than span/180.
According to the table of maximum unshored span below, use a deck with
a nominal thickness of 0.76 mm with a double or triple span condition.
If the bearing is shorter than 76 mm, the project engineer shall verify
that the reaction produced by the wet concrete and the construction
factored loads is less than the web crippling factored resistance of the
deck for the reduced bearing:
For example: Interior bearing 76 mm long with multiple spans:
Pf = maximum of (1.6 x 1.8 + 1.4 x 1) x 1.2 x 1.8 m = 9.3 kN.
or (1.6 x 1.8) x 1.2 x 1.8 m + (1.4 x 2.2) x 0.575 = 8.0 kN.
Pa = 13.9 kN (from table)
Pr = Pa x 1.85 x 0.75
Pr = 19.3 kN > Pf = 9.3 kN
selection is O.K. for web crippling
Once the concrete is cured, the composite slab will have to support
these loads:
Deck and concrete
1.80 kPa
Superimposed dead load 1.44 kPa
Superimposed live load
4.80 kPa
Total load to compare in load table:
w = 1.80 + 1.44 + 4.80 = 8.04 kPa
Total capacity should be equal to or greater than the total load:
wa = 11.34 kPa for a span of 1800 mm, with a 102 mm slab and 0.76 mm
steel deck.
wa > w selection is O.K.

From the table below, the moment of inertia of the composite slab in

the example is 5.8 x 106 mm4 when the elastic modulus used for
deflection calculations equals 203 000 MPa.

The project engineer is responsible for specifying the size and location
of the wire mesh in the concrete slab in order to follow current concrete
installation practices.
The loads in the table have been limited to 14.0 kPa. Furthermore, the
composite deck part of fire rated assemblies is limited to a
superimposed load of 12.0 kPa.
Please contact Canam sales personnel when the total uniform loads
exceed 9.6 kPa as this is an indication that significant concentrated
loads will be used on that floor and that the composite slab and its
reinforcing should be verified for the effect of concentrated loads.
The shaded values indicate that the deck should be shored at mid-span
during the pour and the cure of the concrete for those span and
concrete thickness conditions and they should correspond to the
maximum unshored span values shown at the left of the table.

STEEL DECK P-3623

COMPOSITE

Canams composite P-3623 is a steel deck roll formed to cover 36 in. (914 mm). The flutes are 2 in. (51 mm)
deep and are spaced at 12 in. (305 mm) center to center. The deck can be rolled to length from 6 ft. 6 in.
(2000 mm) to 40 ft. 0 in. (12 200 mm). The wide flutes provide enough space to weld
headed studs through the deck to the top of beams or joists that will
then act in composite with the concrete slab.
The deck is available with steel galvanized
according to ASTM standard A653 with a zinc
thickness corresponding to G60 (Z180).
Other types of steel sheet
finishes may affect the
bond properties
between deck and
concrete. Venting slots can be
added to the bottom of the flutes.
Contact our sales department
for more information.

SERVICE LOAD TABLES P-3623 COMPOSITE


IMPERIAL
These tables are developed for steel having a yield strength (Fy) of 33 ksi and for concrete with a weight of
145 pounds per cubic foot and with a minimum compressive resistance (fc) of 3 ksi at 28 days.
Example: Multiple spans of 7-6, total slab thickness of 4.5 with 2.5
of concrete cover on top of the 2 deck profile.

From the table below, the moment of inertia of the composite slab in

the example is 5.9 in.4 when the elastic modulus used for deflection
calculations equals 29,500 ksi.

During construction, the steel deck must support itself, the concrete,
and the construction uniform load of 20 lbs./ft.2 or a transversal load
of 150 plf specified by the Steel Deck Institute for multiple spans.
The maximum unshored span shown in the table is checked for
bending under the self weight and the construction loads, for web
crippling with a 5 long bearing, and for the deflection under wet
concrete to be less than span/180.
According to the table of maximum unshored span below, use a deck
with a nominal thickness of 22 gauge (t = 0.030) with a double or triple
span condition.
If the bearing is shorter than 5, the project engineer shall verify that the
reaction produced by the wet concrete and the construction factored
loads is less than the web crippling factored resistance of the deck for
the reduced bearing:
For example: Interior bearing 5 long with multiple spans:
Pf = maximum of (1.6 x 44 + 1.4 x 20) x 1.2 x 7.5 = 886 lbs.
or (1.6 x 44) x 1.2 x 7.5 + (1.4 x 150) x 0.575 = 754 lbs.
Pa = 787 lbs. (from table)
Pr = Pa 1.85 x 0.75
Pr = 1,092 lbs. > Pf = 886 lbs. selection is O.K. for web crippling

The project engineer is responsible for specifying the size and location
of the wire mesh in the concrete slab in order to follow current concrete
installation practices.
The loads in the table have been limited to 300 psf. Furthermore, the
composite deck part of fire rated assemblies is limited to a
superimposed load of 250 psf.
Please contact Canam sales personnel when the total uniform loads
exceed 200 psf as this is an indication that significant concentrated
loads will be used on that floor and that the composite slab and its
reinforcing should be verified for the effect of concentrated loads.
The shaded values indicate that the deck should be shored at mid-span
during the pour and the cure of the concrete for those span and
concrete thickness conditions and they should correspond to the
maximum unshored span values shown at the left of the table.

Once

the concrete is cured, the composite slab will have to support


these loads:
Deck and concrete
44 psf
Superimposed dead load
30 psf
Superimposed live load
100 psf
Total load to compare in load table:
w = 44 + 30 + 100 = 174 psf
Total capacity should be equal to or greater than the total load:
wa = 175 psf for a span of 7-6, with a 4.5 slab and 22 gauge steel deck.

SERVICE LOAD TABLES P-3623 COMPOSITE


METRIC
These tables are developed for steel having a yield strength (Fy) of 230 MPa and for concrete with a weight
of 2330 kg per cubic meter and a minimum compressive resistance (fc) of 20.7 MPa at 28 days.
Example: Multiple spans of 2250 mm, total slab thickness of 115 mm with
64 mm of concrete cover on top of the 51 mm deck profile.

During construction, the steel deck must support itself, the concrete,
and the construction uniform load of 1 kPa or a transversal load of
2.2 kN/m specified by the Steel Deck Institute for multiple spans.
The maximum unshored span shown in the table is checked for bending
under the self weight and the construction loads, for web crippling with a
127 mm long bearing, and for the deflection under wet concrete to be less
than span/180.
According to the table of maximum unshored span below, use a deck with
a nominal thickness of 0.76 mm with a double or triple span condition.
If the bearing is shorter than 127 mm, the project engineer shall verify
that the reaction produced by the wet concrete and the construction
factored loads is less than the web crippling factored resistance of the
deck for the reduced bearing:
For example: Interior bearing 127 mm long with multiple spans:
Pf = maximum of (1.6 x 2.11 + 1.4 x 1) x 1.2 x 2.25 m = 12.9 kN
or (1.6 x 2.11) x 1.2 x 2.25 m + (1.4 x 2.2) x 0.575 = 10.9 kN
Pa = 11.49 kN (from table)
Pr = Pa x 1.85 x 0.75
Pr = 15.9 kN > Pf = 12.9 kN
selection os O.K. for web crippling
Once the concrete is cured, the composite slab will have to support
these loads:
Deck and concrete
2.11 kPa
Superimposed dead load 1.44 kPa
Superimposed live load
4.80 kPa
Total load to compare in load table:
w = 2.11 + 1.44 + 4.80 = 8.35 kPa
Total capacity should be equal to or greater than the total load:
wa = 8.64 kPa for a span of 2250 mm, with a 115 mm slab and 0.76 mm
steel deck.
wa > w selection is O.K.

From the table below, the moment of inertia of the composite slab in

the example is 8.2 x 106 mm4 when the elastic modulus used for
deflection calculations equals 203 000 MPa.

The project engineer is responsible for specifying the size and location
of the wire mesh in the concrete slab in order to follow current concrete
installation practices.
The loads in the table have been limited to = 14.0 kPa. Furthermore,
the composite deck part of fire rated assemblies is limited to a
superimposed load of 12.0 kPa.
Please contact Canam sales personnel when the total uniform loads
exceed 9.6 kPa as this is an indication that significant concentrated
loads will be used on that floor and that the composite slab and its
reinforcing should be verified for the effect of concentrated loads.
The shaded values indicate that the deck should be shored at mid-span
during the pour and the cure of the concrete for those span and
concrete thickness conditions and they should correspond to the
maximum unshored span values shown at the left of the table.

STEEL DECK P-2432

COMPOSITE

Canams composite P-2432 is a steel deck roll formed to cover 24 in. (610 mm). The flutes
are 3 in. (76 mm) deep and are spaced at 12 in. (305 mm) center to center. The deck
can be rolled to length from 6 ft. 6 in. (2000 mm) to 40 ft. 0 in.
(12 200 mm). The wide flutes provide enough space to weld
headed studs through the deck to the top of beams or joists
that will then act in composite with the concrete slab.
The deck is available with steel galvanized
according to ASTM standard A653 with
a zinc thickness corresponding to
G60 (Z180). Other types of steel
sheet finishes may affect the
bond properties between
deck and concrete. Venting
slots can be added to the bottom
of the flutes. Contact our sales
department for more information.
Standard thicknesses are 22 gauge (0.030 in. or 0.76 mm),
20 gauge (0.036 in. or 0.91 mm), and 18 gauge (0.048 in. or 1.21 mm).
Standard steel grade conforms to ASTM standard A653 SS Grade 33 with a yield
strength of 33 ksi (230 MPa). Steel grades up to 50 ksi (350 MPa) and material
thickness of 19 gauge (0.042 in. or 1.07 mm) are available given sufficient delivery time.

Properties are based on a unit width of 12 in. for imperial units and a unit width of 1000 mm for S.I. units.
The properties in the table were calculated according to AISI 1996 Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed
Steel Structural Members, considering steel produced according to ASTM A653 SS Grade 33, yield strength = 33 ksi (230 MPa).

SERVICE LOAD TABLES P-2432 COMPOSITE


IMPERIAL
These tables are developed for steel having a yield strength (Fy) of 33 ksi and for concrete with a weight of
145 pounds per cubic foot and with a minimum compressive resistance (fc) of 3 ksi at 28 days.
Example: Multiple spans of 10-0, total slab thickness of 5.5 with 2.5
of concrete cover on top of the 3 deck profile.

From the table below, the moment of inertia of the composite slab in

the example is 10.8 in.4 when the elastic modulus used for deflection
calculations equals 29,500 ksi.

During construction, the steel deck must support itself, the concrete,
and the construction uniform load of 20 lbs./ft.2 or a transversal load
of 150 plf specified by the Steel Deck Institute for multiple spans.

Deflection = 5 x wsl x span4


(384 x Es x Icomp)

The maximum unshored span shown in the table is checked for


bending under the self weight and the construction loads, for web
crippling with a 5 long bearing, and for the deflection under wet
concrete to be less than span/180.
According to the table of maximum unshored span below, use a deck
with a nominal thickness of 20 gauge (t = 0.036) with a double or triple
span condition.
If the bearing is shorter than 5, the project engineer shall verify that the
reaction produced by the wet concrete and the construction factored
loads is less than the web crippling factored resistance of the deck for
the reduced bearing:
For example: Interior bearing 5 long with multiple spans:
Pf = maximum of (1.6 x 57 + 1.4 x 20) x 1.2 x 10.0 = 1,430 lbs.
or (1.6 x 57) x 1.2 x 10.0 + (1.4 x 150) x 0.575 = 1,215 lbs.
Pa = 1,099 lbs. (from table)
Pr = Pa x1.85 x 0.75
Pr = 1,525 lbs. > Pf = 1,430 lbs.
selection is O.K. for web crippling
Once the concrete is cured, the composite slab will have to support
these loads:
Deck and concrete
57 psf
Superimposed dead load
30 psf
Superimposed live load
100 psf
Total load to compare in load table:
w = 57 + 30 + 100 = 187 psf
Total capacity should be equal to or greater than the total load:
wa = 193 psf for a span of 10-0, with a 5.5 slab and 20 gauge steel deck.
wa > w selection is O.K.

selection is adequate

The project engineer is responsible for specifying the size and location
of the wire mesh in the concrete slab in order to follow current concrete
installation practices.
The loads in the table have been limited to 300 psf. Furthermore, the
composite deck part of fire rated assemblies is limited to a
superimposed load of 250 psf.
Please contact Canam sales personnel when the total uniform loads
exceed 200 psf as this is an indication that significant concentrated
loads will be used on that floor and that the composite slab and its
reinforcing should be verified for the effect of concentrated loads.
The shaded values indicate that the deck should be shored at mid-span
during the pour and the cure of the concrete for those span and
concrete thickness conditions and they should correspond to the
maximum unshored span values shown at the left of the table.

SERVICE LOAD TABLES P-2432 COMPOSITE


METRIC
These tables are developed for steel having a yield strength (Fy) of 230 MPa and for concrete with a weight
of 2330 kg per cubic meter and a minimum compressive resistance (fc) of 20.7 MPa at 28 days.
Example: Multiple spans of 3000 mm, total slab thickness of 140 mm with
64 mm of concrete cover on top of the 76 mm deck profile.

During construction, the steel deck must support itself, the concrete,
and the construction uniform load of 1 kPa or a transversal load of
2.2 kN/m specified by the Steel Deck Institute for multiple spans.
The maximum unshored span shown in the table is checked for bending
under the self weight and the construction loads, for web crippling with a
127 mm long bearing, and for the deflection under wet concrete to be less
than span/180.
According to the table of maximum unshored span below, use a deck with
a nominal thickness of 0.91 mm with a double or triple span condition.
If the bearing is shorter than 127 mm, the project engineer shall verify
that the reaction produced by the wet concrete and the construction
factored loads is less than the web crippling factored resistance of the
deck for the reduced bearing:
For example: Interior bearing 127 mm long with multiple spans:
Pf = maximum of (1.6 x 2.70 + 1.4 x 1) x 1.2 x 3.0 m = 20.6 kN
or (1.6 x 2.70) x 1.2 x 3.0 m + (1.4 x 2.2) x 0.575 = 17.3 kN
Pa = 16.0 kN (from table)
Pr = Pa x 1.85 x 0.75
Pr = 22.2 kN > Pf = 20.6 kN selection is O.K. for web crippling
Once the concrete is cured, the composite slab will have to support
these loads:
Deck and concrete
2.70 kPa
Superimposed dead load 1.44 kPa
Superimposed live load
4.80 kPa
Total load to compare in load table:
w = 2.70 + 1.44 + 4.80 = 8.94 kPa
Total capacity should be equal to or greater than the total load:
wa = 9.53 kPa for a span of 3000 mm, with a 140 mm slab and 0.91 mm
steel deck.
wa > w selection is O.K.

From the table below, the moment of inertia of the composite slab in

the example is 14.8 x 106 mm4 when the elastic modulus used for
deflection calculations equals 203 000 MPa.

Deflection = 5 x wsl x span4


(384 x Es x Icomp)
= 1.7 mm < 3000
360

=
=

5 x 4.8 x 30004
(384 x 203 000 x 14.8 x 1 000 000)
8.3 mm selection is adequate

The project engineer is responsible for specifying the size and location
of the wire mesh in the concrete slab in order to follow current concrete
installation practices.
The loads in the table have been limited to = 14.0 kPa. Furthermore,
the composite deck part of fire rated assemblies is limited to a
superimposed load of 12.0 kPa.
Please contact Canam sales personnel when the total uniform loads
exceed 9.6 kPa as this is an indication that significant concentrated
loads will be used on that floor and that the composite slab and its
reinforcing should be verified for the effect of concentrated loads.
The shaded values indicate that the deck should be shored at mid-span
during the pour and the cure of the concrete for those span and
concrete thickness conditions and they should correspond to the
maximum unshored span values shown at the left of the table.

STEEL DECK P-3012

FORM

Canams P-3012 is a steel deck roll formed to cover 30 in. (762 mm).
The flutes are 9/16 in. (14 mm) deep and are spaced at 2 1/2 in. (64 mm)
center to center. The deck can be rolled to length as per your
request or stocked in 20 ft. 4 in. (6.2 m) lengths to cover
multiple spans of form deck.
The deck is available with
steel galvanized according
to ASTM standard A653
with a zinc thickness
corresponding to
G60 (Z180) or with
uncoated steel. Contact
our sales department for
more information.
Standard thicknesses are 28 gauge (0.015 in.
or 0.38 mm), 26 gauge (0.018 in. or 0.46 mm), and
24 gauge (0.024 in. or 0.61 mm).

Properties are based on a unit width of 12 in. for imperial units and a unit width of 1000 mm for S.I. units.
The properties in the table were calculated according to AISI 1996 Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel
Structural Members, considering steel produced according to ASTM specifications with a minimum yield strength = 60 ksi (410 MPa).

SERVICE LOADS TABLES P-3012 FORM & SLAB


NOTE 1

NOTE 2

Concrete: fc = 3 ksi (20 MPa)


Volumic weigth = 150 pcf (2400 kg / m3)
The maximum span of P-3012 form deck has been calculated for
different slab thickness taking into account :
the weight of the wet concrete
a construction load of 20 psf (0.96 kPa) uniformly distributed or 150 plf
(2.2 kN/m) at the middle of the deck span,
at least a triple span of the form deck,
a maximum deflection of the span over 240 under the wet concrete,
and the height of the steel form deck is included in the slab thickness.

Wire fabric steel:


Fy = 60 ksi (400 Mpa)
The resistance of the reinforced slab is computed using LRFD caluclations
and considering that:
the welded wire fabric is held at mid-depth of the concrete above the deck
for slabs that measure 2.5 (65 mm) to 3.0 (76 mm) and that the wire fabric
is draped to be at 3/4 (19 mm) from the top of the slab over the supports
and to bear on the form deck at mid-span for slabs thicker than 3 (76 mm),
the reinforced slab must resist to a negative moment computed as
w x span2 / 10 over the support and to a positive moment computed as
w x span2 / 11 at mid-span,
with w being the sum of the service loads multiplied by 1.7,
the form deck does not supply any resistance.
The capacities shown in the service loads table are limited to 400 psf (20 kPa)
as higher loads are normally an indication that concentrated loads will be used
on the floor and that further engineering investigation should be done.
We could select a P-3012 form deck 26 gauge (0.46 mm) thick with
multiple spans of 3-0 (914 mm) on center to pour the 2 1/2 (65 mm)
slab with a welded wire fabric 6 x 6 W 2.9 x 2.9 (150 x 150 MW
18.7 x 18.7) maintained at mid-depth of the concrete thickness above
the deck. Once cured, the concrete slab could safely support 171 psf
(8.2 kPa) which is greater than the total service load.

FLOOR DECK FEATURES


VENTED DECK
When cementitious insulation fills are used, the deck
sheet shall have an appropriate galvanized finish
and the deck profile must be
adequately vented.
On request, Canam Steel
can produce vent slits
like the one shown
here. The small slits
are made upwards in each
bottom flute at a frequency that
gives openings equal to 0.5% of
the deck covered surface.
Those vents allow the water contained in
the cementitious insulation fills to evaporate even after
the top of the fill is sealed by a roof membrane.

INTERNAL HANGER TAB


Light loads are sometimes suspended from the
steel deck. On request, Canam Steel can produce
hanger tabs like the one shown here.
The bottom flute is partially
punched out at regular
intervals lengthwise
and at 12 (305 mm)
on center widthwise.
A #12 wire (minimum size)
can then be attached to that tab to
support a maximum of 100 pounds (45 kg)
when using at least a 20 gauge (0.91 mm) thick
sheet for the deck.
A disadvantage of the hanger tab is that, when
concrete is poured on deck produced with tabs,
there will be some dripping through the tabs. The
drips will fall on the surface of the floor below.

CANAM DECK CERTIFICATION


Canam Steel Corporation asked for Factory Mutual
(FM) Research Corporations approval of steel deck
profiles P-3606 and P3615 according to FMs standard
4451. This approval is based on a maximum deflection
produced by a worker moving on the roof. This is to
ensure that the membranes will remain waterproof. Thus
there will be a maximum span for each deck thickness
and the deck will be used at least in double span. Refer
to page 7 for maximum spans.
Canams galvanized deck P-3606, P-3615, P-2436
and P-3615 composite are generically approved by
Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Refer to the UL Fire
Resistance Directory for fire rating with necessary

construction assembly details. Galvanized P-2432


composite is UL approved for construction assembly
D902. Special lathing is required on the underside of
Canams painted deck to allow fire protection material to
adhere properly.
An evaluation report (ER-5602) issued for deck
P-3606 by the International Conference of Building
Officials (ICBO) may be downloaded from www.icbo.org.
This report contains the physical properties of the profile
as well as the diaphragm allowable shear resistance
tables produced according to the SDIs method and AISI
1996 specifications but with the safety factors required
by ICBO for earthquake forces.

STEEL DECK DIAPHRAGMS


This new Canam steel deck catalog presents
load tables based on the 1996 edition of the AISI
specifications and the recommendations of the
Steel Deck Institute.
The steel deck sheets used for roofs and floors
provide support for gravity loads between the joists or
beams. Once installed, these sheets can also be used as
a horizontal brace and therefore the steel deck works as
a diaphragm. The fluted deck is the equivalent of a beam
web while the flanges of that horizontal beam are the
perimeter members that are connected to vertical
bracing. The secondary elements form stiffeners for the
web produced by the fluted deck. As for normal beams,
the deck (web of horizontal beam) must be attached to
the perimeter members (flange of horizontal beam)
to ensure transfer of the shear forces.
The Steel Deck Institute published the Diaphragm
Design Manual using the results compiled from series of
tests carried out in the laboratories of the University
of West Virginia. The manual explains the theory behind
the equations, provides examples on how to calculate
the shear in the diaphragm, and indicates how to use the
load tables. The load tables show the shear resistance of
diaphragms using different thickness and steel deck
profiles attached to the supports and other sheets, using
welds, screws, or nails.

This catalog presents the most common diaphragm


tables for Canam deck profiles welded to the supports,
and using screws or button punch at the sheet side lap.
The diaphragm allowable shear resistance tables in
this catalog follow the methods of SDI and safety factors
proposed by the AISI 1996 specifications against
wind forces.
The ICBO evaluation report (ER-5602) for Canams
P-3606 profile contains the diaphragm allowable shear
resistance tables produced according to the SDIs
method and safety factors proposed by ICBO against
earthquake forces.
The resistance and rigidity of this bracing method
depend on the geometry, frequency, and type of fastener
used with structural elements and side lap joints between
the steel deck sheets. In addition to this information,
the value and source of the applied shear diaphragm
must be clearly specified on the structural engineers
drawings. The availability of this information will ensure
that the cost, material, and installation reflect the
structural engineers design and that alternate proposals
are also possible.

DIAPHRAGM LOAD TABLES


INTRODUCTION
The diaphragm load tables are derived for Canams
various type of steel roof deck and composite floor deck
(Fy = 33 ksi) as well as for form deck (Fy = 60 ksi). For
each steel deck design thickness given, allowable design
shear is listed under the specific span length, fastener
type and pattern.
Lightweight insulating concrete (fc = 125 psi) fill is one
of the different types of deck-fill that were used in tests done
by the Steel Deck Institute (SDI). Type I fill, with vermiculite
aggregate, 2 1/2 in. minimum depth, showed greater
diaphragm shear strength than a bare deck.
Both normal weight and lightweight structural
concrete (fc = 3000 psi) on composite and form deck are
presented here with a minimum of 2 1/2 in. concrete
topping over the deck.

4. All values are for a three span condition. Greater


values are available for single or double span
condition since more fasteners are counted in the
strength calculation.
5. Only screw (for overlap sidelap) or button punch
(for interlocking sidelap) is used as sidelap
fastener to generate the tables. The SDI does
not recommend welding the sidelaps for deck
with a thickness of 0.0295 or less.
6. Where welds are used as fasteners at supports,
the SDI recommends using weld washers only
on deck thickness less than 0.028 in. These
should be 16 gauge washers with a 3/8-inch hole
in them.

All the diaphragm shear strength values are further


limited by the plate-like shear buckling strength which
governs for decks with relatively long span and closely
spaced fasteners.

7. The column SIDELAP CONN./SPAN shows the


number of connectors between structural supports
at the sheet edge. For example, 5 would
represent six even spaces or stitch fasteners at 12
in. on center within a 6 ft. deck span.

The diaphragm tables were derived based on the


following assumptions:

8. The table values do not include a stress increase


of 1.33 for short term or wind loading.

1. The number of fasteners are the same at both


the end members and interior supports.

Refer to SDI Diaphragm Design Manual DDM02


Section 2.5 for Limiting Conditions on end laps,
sidelaps, welds, screws, powder driven fasteners, split
panels, longitudinal edges, mixed panel lengths.

2. The number of intermediate sidelap connectors


is assumed to be the same as that of extreme
edge fasteners.
3. Safety factors are used as proposed by the SDI
DDM02 and AISI 1996 specification: 2.35 for
welded diaphragm under wind load, 3.25 for filled
diaphragm.
