Roof Deck

Roof Deck from EQC offers major benefits with its structural and dimensional stability providing significant construction cost savings.

It does this by eliminating the need for roof purlins while also reducing the extent of structural steelwork.

With all the benefits of wide-span construction, EQC Roof Deck enables lighter and more economic designs for high performance roof installations. Roof Deck typically supports single-ply membrane or bituminous build-up flat roof systems, green roof systems or EQC Seam standing-seam roof assemblies.

The EQC Roof Deck range can be supplied with web perforations to improve acoustic absorption. EQC perforated decking provides excellent sound absorption characteristics and our technical team can provide details of systems tested for both absorption and reduction. We also offer indicative acoustic calculations for the selected roof system.

EQC Roof Deck is supplied to site in made-to-order lengths up to 12 metres. Where long lengths are difficult to handle on site, use of extended end-laps may be considered to achieve required structural performance.
