12 For loan / span conditions beyond the scope of these
tables the Fire Engineering Method as detailed in the
SCI Publication 056 should be adopted or use Kingspan
Toolkit Software.
Please contact our Technical Services Department
for advice.
See following pages for Multideck 50-V2 Fire
Resistance Tables.
13 These tables apply to all gauges 0.9mm and above.
Note:
For load / span conditions beyond the scope of these tables, the Kingspan Multideck design software should be used to check for a solution.
Toolkit Design Software provides an accurate and detailed analysis and Kingspan encourages its use for all design checks.

Multideck 50-V2
Sound Attenuation
Kingspan Structural Products have undertaken extensive
testing on the acoustic performance of the Multideck range of
composite steel deck slabs
The testing was carried out on behalf of Kingspan Structural
Products by the Steel Construction Institute and resulted in a
comprehensive report Acoustic Performance of Kingspan

Note:
The tables are based on a minimum concrete density of 2350kgs/m3 and can be used with mesh or
Dramix reinforcement. Lightweight concrete may lead to a reduction in acoustic performance of
about 2 to 3 dB on the values shown above.
Values of DnT,w and Lnw are available from Kingspan Structural Technical Department.
The junction details between the walls and floors must be appropriately detailed to ensure that
flanking sound is minimised .
Pre-d
The values in the table are based on the new (since 2003) measurement index DnT,w+Ctr for eliver
cutti y rake
airborne sound. The Ctr term is a spectrum adaptation value which is generally negative and ng of
adjusts the index to take account of low frequency sounds that often cause problems in residential secti
is ava ons
buildings. Thus the DnT,w +Ctr rating is lower than the DnT,w rating for the same construction. ilable

Multideck 50
Multideck 60-V2
The original and still the most popular deck in the market is a
60mm high, structurally efficient trapezoidal profile providing an
excellent composite union between steel and concrete to
maximise the load carrying and spanning up to 4.5m (no props).
The efficient shape of the deck and resulting composite slab
make an excellent option for composite beam design.
Key benefits include:
Concrete Volume Savings

Due to its unique profile Multideck 60-V2 requires less
Contents concrete than other decks to achieve any given slab
thickness. Multideck 60-V2 can save up to 20% concrete
volume compared with typical re-entrant profiles.
See graph below.

Greater Design Efficiency

The larger range of Multideck gauge thicknesses allow
much closer matching of design requirements and deck
performance. Kingspan Multideck 60-V2 can be used
with Dramix Steel Fibre Reinforcement to eliminate mesh
in slab design.
The Multideck range has a 1m cover width requiring fewer
panels and sidelaps. No temporary supports are required
under most conditions. A wide range of accessories allows
for easy installation of ceilings and services.

Multideck 80-V2
1 The fire resistance tables for Multideck 80-V2 on the 4 The fire resistance load tables are for continuous spans
following pages are based upon fire test data from full only with no propping. For 2 hour fire rating or propped and
scale tests performed at the Warrington Fire Research single span conditions use the Kingspan Toolkit Software or
Centre UK, April 1991. contact Kingspan Technical Services.
2 All stated slab depths comply with the minimum fire 5 Minimum laps should be 300mm for A142 mesh and
insulation criteria of BS 476: Part 20 1987. 400mm for A193 and A252 mesh.
3 The composite slab is assumed to be continuous over one 6 The mesh should be placed between 15 and 40mm from the
or more intermediate supports. i.e. minimum double span. upper surface of the slab (this range caters for lap areas).
7 The tables are based upon Grade 30 concrete,
reinforcement having a yield strength of 460N/mm2.
8 The tables must be read in conjunction with load / span
tables for Multideck 80-V2 to verify the structural integrity of
the composite slab.
9 The values in all the tables are relevant to unpropped
construction.
1.7kN/m2 in all cases. The tables are therefore appropriate
for office type applications.
For other applications where the imposed loads are almost
entirely permanent the total load should be adjusted
accordingly before reading from the tables,
eg:
150mm normal weight concrete plantroom slab and
A142 mesh.
7.5kN/m2 live load.
1.2kN/m2 50mm screed finish 0.5kN/m2 ceilings
and services.
1 hour fire rating.
Total applied load = 1.2 + 0.5 + 7.5/0.8 = 11.075kN/m2
From table opposite maximum span = 3.16m.
11 The * denotes that the mesh provided, although satisfying
the fire resistance requirement, does not comply with
the minimum anti-crack reinforcement requirement of
BS 5950: Part 4.
Refer to standard load / span tables for minimum mesh
requirements.
12 For load span conditions beyond the scope of these tables
the Kingspan Toolkit Software should be used which
includes the Fire Engineering Method as detailed in the
SCI Publication 056.
See following pages for Multideck 80-V2 Fire
Resistance Tables.

Multideck 146

Multideck 146 composite steel deck is optimised to
minimise the concrete volumes on longer spans providing
significant savings in comparison to traditional trapezoidal
steel decks used free spanning or propped.
Multideck 146 requires 31% less concrete than the next
best spanning 80mm trapezoidal deck of the equivalent
slab depth.
The saving in concrete translates into a saving in weight
Contents that the structure must support, resulting in economies in
the supporting structure and foundations.

Notes:
All values require mesh as shown and 16mm diameter bar at 60mm height.
Minimum reinforcement mesh sizes shown provide both 0.1% of the gross cross-sectional area and 0.2% of the cross sectional area
above the ribs of the concrete at the support.
Construction stage spans are noted under the 4.0kN/m2 loads and shaded.
* In these cases there is no improvement in span capacity in using propped construction over non propped construction.
Propped values for the 1.2 gauge Multideck 146 should be obtained from the Multideck software.
There is no Dramix Steel Fibre solution for Multideck 146.

Multideck 146 Temporary Supports

Do I Need to Prop?
Multideck 146 is designed as single span with a capacity of
6.0m plus and as such does not normally require temporary
supports during the construction stage.
There may be cases where longer spans are required and
the deck can be propped during the construction stage.
Load tables are shown for the Multideck 146 1.5mm gauge
propped construction.
The requirement for temporary support must be clearly shown
and identified on the drawings of the deck layout. Provision of
props to deck, that was not intended to be propped, should
be checked with the engineer as the composite stage capacity
can be reduced.
If temporary supports are required, they should be provided at
mid span of the Multideck 146 so that the span either side of
the prop is equal. The decking sheets must never be cut at the
location of temporary support and the deck should not be
fixed to the temporary support.
Temporary supports should continuously support the
underside of the deck and are normally lengths of timber or
steel beams supported by adjustable steel tubes (Acrows).
The width of the temporary support on which the deck sits
should not be less than 100mm and should extend for the
full width of the bay of deck and be suitably braced.
Discrete props and packs should not be used.
It may be necessary to put the temporary supports in place
prior to laying of the deck.
The support of the prop at the base must always be
considered for strength and stability, taking account of the
weight of wet concrete and construction loads.
The design and provision of props is the responsibility
of others.
A typical temporary support is shown
in detail below.
Note:
We recommend that temporary supports
are braced in both directions for safety.

Concrete
Kingspan supply the Multideck product for use with in-situ placed concrete to create a composite concrete slab.
As such it is important that the concrete and its placement meet the minimum requirements to achieve a quality product.
Concrete should be specified, supplied and assessed in accordance with the requirements of BS8500.

adding Dramix Steel Fibres into concrete. Visit our website www.bekaert.com/building
A continuous grading is preferred.
Mix until all glued fibres are separated into individual fibres.
Fibres dont increase mixing time significantly.
If special cements or admixtures are used, a preliminary
test is recommended.

Uni-Wedge provides a solution to fix building services
equipment without penetrating the decking membrane.
This fixing provides a guaranteed safe working load and
simply requires a standard hexagon key and spanner with no
requirement for power, special tools or highly skilled labour.
Uni-Wedge has a unique body style that allows it to fix to
seven decking profiles, making it easy to use and specify.
The specific type of decking is not always easy to identify on
site and has caused installers problems when trying to acquire
the correct fixing to use, but Uni-Wedge provides the ideal
solution (see table below).
Uni-Wedge has been designed for the end user to ensure that
