EPD: Steel roofing and floor decking panels, galvanized or uncoated, tensile strength: 410-655 N/mm2, 7800 kg/m3 (Nucor)

Steel deck is typically manufactured by rolling or otherwise forming light gage steel coils into specific shapes. The coils are either galvanized or uncoated steel to which a coating of paint may be applied. Deck in this EPD represents product manufactured in North America from steel product produced in North America. Typical steel roof and floor deck panels are 0.04 – 0.08 meters in depth and are manufactured from 22 – 16 gage material. Greater depths and heavier material thicknesses are available. Floor deck panels that are used only as forms are typically shallower and are manufactured from lighter gage material.
