In today’s fast-paced construction industry, builders and developers in the UAE are constantly looking for durable, cost-effective, and time-saving solutions. One of the most reliable options is the Metal Deck Sheet system, widely used for multi-storey buildings, commercial complexes, factories, and industrial projects.
At MAK Prefab Steel Contracting LLC, a trusted steel solutions provider based in Dubai with a full-fledged facility in Umm Al Quwain, we specialize in the design, supply, and installation of high-quality metal deck sheets in UAE. Backed by 15+ years of group experience in steel fabrication and construction, our deck sheets are engineered for strength, safety, and long-term performance.
What Are Metal Deck Sheets?
A metal deck sheet is a corrugated steel sheet that acts as a permanent shuttering formwork during concrete slab casting. Once the concrete is poured, the deck sheet bonds with it to form a composite floor system.
This method eliminates the need for traditional shuttering, speeds up construction, and enhances the structural strength of floors and roofs.
Key Characteristics of Metal Deck Sheets:
- Made from high-tensile galvanized steel.
- Lightweight yet extremely strong.
- Designed for quick installation and reusability.
- Provides superior bonding with concrete due to its ribbed design.
