Classic composite flooring profile, easily transported, simple and efficient
ComFlor® 46 was our first composite flooring profile, introduced in the early 1980s and is still popular today for its primary characteristics of being nestable, easily transported, simple and efficient. Key benefits are:
Nestable
Fast laying
Economic
Efficient for export
Nestable: The simple trapezoidal shape neatly nests one profile into another, allowing more square metres per bundle.
Fast laying: As simple to install as a roof deck, the concrete can soon be poured.
Economic: Relatively low cost and concrete use compared to re-entrant profiles.
Efficient to export: Maximises the square meterage in each container.
Notes:
1. Deck and beam deflection (ie, ponding) is not included in the table.
2. Deck and mesh weight is not included in the weight of concrete figures.
3. British Standard density of concrete is taken as:
Normal weight (wet) 2400 kg/m3
Normal weight (dry) 2350 kg/m3
Lightweight (wet) 1900 kg/m3
Lightweight (dry) 1800 kg/m3
Deck material
Tata Steel Galvatite®, hot dip zinc coated steel to BS EN 10346 S280GD+Z275, with guaranteed minimum proof strength of 280N/mm2 and zinc coating of total mass 275g/m2 (including both sides). This is sufficient for internal floors in a non-aggressive environment, which satisfies the requirement in clause 4.2 BS EN 1994-1-1 - the exposed surfaces of the steel decking shall be adequately protected to resist the particular atmospheric conditions. A zinc coating, if specified, should conform to the requirements of BS EN 10346. The specification may be varied, depending on service conditions.
