OUR SERVICES
For project design, bid preparation or component manufacturing, our sales representatives, engineers,
technicians and draftspersons are at your service. Our team can suggest efficient and economical solutions.
DRAWINGS
Canam Steel produces its own shop drawings for
the fabrication of your steel joists, trusses, structural steel
components, steel deck and girts.
FABRICATION
Our production equipment is at the leading edge
of technology. We have continued to invest significantly in
the best available equipment in the industry, including
computer-aided manufacturing and numerically-controlled
machinery. Canam Steel has automated roll formers for
girts and steel decks.
DELIVERY
Canam Steel’s advantage has always been our ability
to deliver on time, regardless of where or when you need
our products. We know you cannot afford to keep your
on-site erection crews waiting. For this reason, our trucks
and semitrailers travel the continent around the clock to satisfy
the requirements of your construction schedules.

NOTES ABOUT SERVICE LOAD TABLES

The Canam steel deck catalog includes load tables based
on the 1996 edition of the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI)
specifications for the design of cold-formed steel structural members
and the recommendations of the Steel Deck Institute (SDI) Design
Manual. Diaphragm tables are updated with safety factors in Table D.5
of the Supplement 2004 to the North American Specification for the
Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members, 2001 edition.
Although the calculations are based on Load and Resistance Factor

Design (LRFD), all the load tables in this catalog show the service
load capacity. These load tables should be compared with service
applied loads and not with factored applied loads.
For standard steel deck specifications on materials, design, and

installation, please consult the Steel Deck Institute Design Manual
(publication No. 30) and Manual of Construction with Steel Deck.
WARNING
Although every effort was made to ensure that all data in this catalog is factual
and that the numerical values are accurate to a degree consistent with current
structural design practice, Canam Steel Corporation does not assume
responsibility for errors or oversights that may result from the use of the
information contained herein. Anyone making use of the contents of this catalog
assumes all liability arising from such use. All suggestions for improvements to
this publication will receive full consideration for future printings.
The latest version of the ASTM A 653 standard contains 5 yield strength grades for structural quality steel. The
chemical composition and mechanical properties are also specified for each grade. The steel sheets normally used to
form Canam steel deck correspond to ASTM A 653 SS Grade 33. They have a yield strength of 33 ksi (230 MPa) and
a tensile strength of 45 ksi (310 MPa). Steel with a higher yield strength or a different ASTM designation can be used
to meet specific needs, but the tables in this document are all based on a yield strength of 33 ksi (230 MPa).
AISI specifications for the design of cold-formed steel structural members indicate that the thickness supplied shall
not be less than 95% of the design thickness used. The generally accepted thickness of the zinc coating of a G90 (Z275)
finish is approximately 0.0015 in. (0.04 mm).
Canam steel deck is available with G90 (Z275), G60 (Z180),

or A25 (ZF75) zinc protection as described by the ASTM A 653 standard.
A gray polyester paint finish without underlying zinc protection is also
readily available. Upon request, Canam can also provide white finish
paint with an underlying zinc protection of G90, or other types of material,
given sufficient notice.
The P-2432, P-3623, P-3606, and P-3615 deck profiles are available
with embossments to act in composite action with a concrete slab. The
tables for these composite sections show loads and unshored spans for
normal weight concrete and light weight concrete on separate pages.
The P-2404, P-2436, P-3606, and P-3615 deck profiles are available
with perforated web elements that reduce noise reverberation when
fiberglass insulation strips are installed according to the assembly
instructions for acoustical deck.
Upon special request to our sales department, we can provide sheets

in lengths of less than 6 ft (1.8 m).

P-3615 & P-3606

Canam’s steel decks P-3615 and P-3606 are roll-formed to cover 36 in. (914 mm)
in width. The flutes are 1.5 in. (38 mm) deep and are spaced at 6 in.
(152 mm) on center. The deck can be rolled to lengths from
6 ft (1 800 mm) to 42 ft 6 in. (13 000 mm) and
stacked in bundles
that will not exceed
4,000 pounds
(1,800 kg) unless
requested otherwise
by our customer.
These decks are readily available
with steel galvanized according
to ASTM standard A 653 with zinc thicknesses
corresponding to G90 (Z275), G60 (Z180) or
A25 (ZF75). Canam also offers gray painted
deck. Other finishes are available upon request;
please check with our sales department for availability.
Nominal thicknesses range from 0.030 in. (0.76 mm) to 0.060 in. (1.52 mm).

P-3615 & P-3606 COMPOSITE

Canam’s composite P-3615 and P-3606 are steel decks roll formed to cover 36 in. (914 mm).
The flutes are 1.5 in. (38 mm) deep and are spaced at 6 in. (152 mm)
center to center. The deck can be rolled to lengths
from 6 ft (1 800 mm) to 42 ft 6 in. (13 000 mm).
The narrow flutes provide enough space
to weld headed studs through the deck
to the top of beams or joists that
will then act in composite with
the concrete slab, however
there could be a reduction
to the headed stud capacity.
The deck is available with steel galvanized
according to ASTM standard A 653 with a zinc
thickness corresponding to G60 (Z180). Other types of
steel sheet finishes may affect the bond properties
between deck and concrete. Contact our sales
department for more information.
Standard thicknesses are 0.030 in. (0.76 mm), 0.036 in. (0.91 mm), and
0.048 in. (1.21 mm). Standard steel grade conforms to ASTM standard A 653 SS
Grade 33 with a yield strength of 33 ksi (230 MPa). Steel grades up to 50 ksi (350 MPa)
and material thickness of 0.042 in. (1.07 mm) are available given sufficient delivery time.

P-3623 COMPOSITE
Canam’s composite P-3623 is a steel deck roll formed to cover 36 in. (914 mm). The flutes are 2 in. (51 mm)
deep and are spaced at 12 in. (305 mm) center to center. The deck can be rolled to lengths from
6 ft 6 in. (2 000 mm) to 40 ft 0 in. (12 200 mm). The wide flutes provide enough space
to weld headed studs through the deck to the top of beams or joists that
will then act in composite with the concrete slab.
according to ASTM standard A 653 with a zinc
thickness corresponding to G60 (Z180).
Other types of steel sheet
finishes may affect the
bond properties
between deck and
concrete. Venting slots can be
added to the bottom of the flutes.
Contact our sales department
for more information.
Standard thicknesses are 0.030 in. (0.76 mm),
0.036 in. (0.91 mm), and 0.048 in. (1.21 mm). Standard steel
grade conforms to ASTM standard A 653 SS Grade 33
with a yield strength of 33 ksi (230 MPa). Steel grades up
to 50 ksi (350 MPa) and material thickness of 0.042 in. (1.07 mm)
are available given sufficient delivery time.

P-2432 COMPOSITE
Canam’s composite P-2432 is a steel deck roll formed to cover 24 in. (610 mm). The flutes
are 3 in. (76 mm) deep and are spaced at 12 in. (305 mm) center to center. The
deck can be rolled to lengths from 6 ft 6 in. (2 000 mm) to 40 ft 0 in.
(12 200 mm). The wide flutes provide enough space to weld
headed studs through the deck to the top of beams or joists
that will then act in composite with the concrete slab.
according to ASTM standard A 653 with
a zinc thickness corresponding to
G60 (Z180). Other types of steel
sheet finishes may affect the
bond properties between
deck and concrete. Venting
slots can be added to the bottom
of the flutes. Contact our sales
department for more information.
Standard thicknesses are 0.030 in. (0.76 mm), 0.036 in.
(0.91 mm), and 0.048 in. (1.21 mm). Standard steel grade conforms
to ASTM standard A 653 SS Grade 33 with a yield strength
of 33 ksi (230 MPa). Steel grades up to 50 ksi (350 MPa) and material
thickness of 0.042 in. (1.07 mm) are available given sufficient delivery time.

P-3012 FORM
Canam’s P-3012 is a steel deck roll formed to cover 30 in. (762 mm).
The flutes are 9/16 in. (14 mm) deep and are spaced at 2 1/2 in. (64 mm)
center to center. The deck can be rolled to lengths as per your
request or stocked in 20 ft 4 in. (6.2 m) lengths to cover
multiple spans of form deck.
The deck is available with steel
galvanized according
to ASTM standard A 653
with a zinc thickness
corresponding to
G60 (Z180) or with
uncoated steel. Contact
our sales department for
more information.
Standard thicknesses are 0.015 in. (0.38 mm),
0.018 in. (0.46 mm), and 0.024 in. (0.61 mm).

P-3012 FORM
NOTE 1 NOTE 2
Concrete: f’c = 3 ksi (20 MPa) Wire fabric steel: Fy = 60 ksi (400 Mpa)
Volumic weight = 150 pcf (2400 kg / m3) The resistance of the reinforced slab is computed using LRFD caluclations
The maximum span of P-3012 form deck has been calculated for different and considering that:
slab thickness taking into account : • the welded wire fabric is held at mid-depth of the concrete above the deck for
• the weight of the wet concrete slabs that measure 2.5’’ (65 mm) to 3.0’’ (76 mm) and that the wire fabric is
• a construction load of 20 psf (0.96 kPa) uniformly distributed or 150 plf draped to be at 3/4’’ (19 mm) from the top of the slab over the supports and to
(2.2 kN/m) at the middle of the deck span, bear on the form deck at mid-span for slabs thicker than 3’’ (76 mm),
• at least a triple span of the form deck, • the reinforced slab must resist to a negative moment computed
• a maximum deflection of the span over 240 under the wet concrete, as w x span2 / 10 over the support and to a positive moment computed
• and the height of the steel form deck is included in the slab thickness. as w x span2 / 11 at mid-span,
• with w being the sum of the service loads multiplied by 1.7,
• the form deck does not supply any resistance.
The capacities shown in the service loads table are limited to 400 psf (20 kPa)
as higher loads are normally an indication that concentrated loads will be used
on the floor and that further engineering investigation should be done.
Example: We could select a P-3012 form deck 0.018” (0.46 mm) thick with multiple
spans of 3’-0’’ (914 mm) on center to pour the 2 1/2’’ (65 mm) slab with a
2 1/2’’ (65 mm) deep slab 28 psf (1.40 kPa)
welded wire fabric 6’’ x 6’’ W 2.9 x 2.9 (150 x 150 MW 18.7 x 18.7)
Superimposed dead load 30 psf (1.44 kPa) maintained at mid-depth of the concrete thickness above the deck.
Superimposed live load 100 psf (4.80 kPa) Once cured, the concrete slab could safely support 171 psf (8.2 kPa)
TOTAL service load 158 psf (7.64 kPa) which is greater than the total service load.

DECK FEATURES
VENTED DECK
When cementitious insulation fills are used, the deck sheet

shall have an appropriate galvanized finish and
the deck profile must be adequately vented.
On request, Canam Steel can
produce vent slits like the
one shown here.
The small slits are
made upwards in each
bottom flute at a frequency that gives
openings equal to 0.5% of the deck
covered surface.
The vents allow the water contained
in the cementitious insulation fills to
evaporate even after the top of the
insulation fill is sealed by
a roof membrane.
Note: Available only with

P-3606, P-3623
and P-2432.
INTEGRAL HANGER TAB
Light loads are sometimes suspended from the steel deck.

On request, Canam Steel can produce hanger tabs like the one
shown here. The bottom flute is partially punched out at regular
intervals lengthwise and at 12 in. (305 mm) on center
widthwise. A #12 wire (minimum size) can then
be attached to that tab to support a maximum
weight of 45 kg (100 pounds)
when using at least
a 0.036 in. (0.91 mm)
thick sheet for the deck.
Note: When concrete
is poured on deck
produced with tabs, there will be
some dripping through the tabs.
Drip protection for objects
below may be necessary.
Note: Available only with P-3623

and P-2432

CERTIFICATION
Canam Steel Corporation has Factory Mutual (FM)
Research Corporation’s approval of steel deck profiles
P-3606 and P-3615 according to FM’s standard 4451.
This approval is based on a maximum deflection
produced by a worker moving on the roof. This is to
ensure that the membranes will remain waterproof. Thus
there will be a maximum span for each deck thickness
and the deck will be used at least in double span. Refer
to page 7 for maximum spans.
Canam’s galvanized deck P-3606, P-3615, P-2404,

P-2436 and P-3615 composite are generically approved
by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Refer to the UL
“Fire Resistance Directory” for fire rating with necessary
construction assembly details. Galvanized P-2432 com-
posite is UL approved for construction assembly D902.
Special lathing is required on the underside of Canam’s
painted deck to allow fire protection material to adhere
properly.

DIAPHRAGM
ROOF DIAPHRAGM EXAMPLE

Preliminary design for the roof deck needed for a structure, 200 ft by 400 ft, which relies on the roof diaphragm for stability. Multiple spans
of 6 ft with 1.5 in. deck profile.
Various references and codes can be the basis for determining the lateral loads on the structure. Calculation of the lateral loads is
not shown here, but the total service load is given as 158 kip. Therefore the maximum service linear shear along a support line
is 158 x 0.5/200 = 395 plf.

Refer to the table on page 38 for P-3606 with a nominal thickness of 0.030 in. and 36/9 pattern of 3/4 in. puddle welds on support
and 2 No. 10 stitch screws per deck span of 6 ft, the allowable shear capacity is 555 plf, which is greater than 395 plf required.
Note that the panel buckling strength limit check is already incorporated in the diaphragm capacity tables.
To determine the fastener spacing at the perimeter diaphragm shear resisting line, 3/4 in. puddle welds are used with nominal shear
strength calculated per SDI publication “Diaphragm Design Manual”. Hence the allowable shear capacity is:
Qf 2.138
= = 0.91 kip
Ω 2.35
The maximum spacing is: e = 0.91 x 1,000 / 555 = 1.64 ft = 19.7 in.
which is less than the interior side-lap fastener spacing of 24 in.
Use 3/4 in. puddle welds at 19 in. maximum along resisting line parallel to deck flute; along resisting line perpendicular to deck
flute, 36/9 pattern gives 6 in. of weld spacing, which is adequate.
To calculate the stiffness of the diaphragm, several additional data are required.
From the load tables on page 38, K1 = 0.234 ft-1.
From the tables on page 33, K2 = 885 kip/in., K4 = 3.78 and Dxx = D22 = 129 ft.
Diaphragm stiffness:
885
G’ = = 61.28 kip/in.
3.78 + 0.3 x 129 + 3 x 0.234 x 6

For most diaphragms which are short, deep and shear sensitive, the change in shear deflection, between any two points, equals
the shear diagram area between the same two points, divided by the shear width and the shear diaphragm stiffness G’.
Assume the roof in this case as a diaphragm uniformly loaded under wind load, on a simple span, the maximum deflection at
midspan is calculated as:
400 ft 1

FILLED DIAPHRAGM EXAMPLE
A floor system is fabricated using normal weight concrete over a P-3623 composite deck with nominal thickness of 0.036 in. at three or more
spans of 9 ft. Evaluate the system for strength and stiffness. fc’ = 3,000 psi, dc = 2.5 in. concrete cover, electrode E70XX 3/4 in. welds to
support and button punches as side-lap fastener. The analysis has led to a maximum service required shear of 0.75 kip/ft.

From the table on page 46 for P-3623 composite deck with a normal weight concrete, 3/4 in. puddle welds at 36/4 pattern
to support and 2 button punches per span, the allowable shear strength is 1.66 kip/ft, which is greater than what is required
of 0.75 kip/ft.
Determine the fastener spacing at perimeter shear resisting line. Using 3/4 in. weld with nominal shear strength Qf = 2.531 kip
calculated per SDI publication “Diaphragm Design Manual”, the maximum spacing is:
2.531
e= / 0.75 = 1.44 ft
2.35
which is less than interior side-lap fastener spacing of 9/3 = 3 ft.
Along perimeter support parallel to deck flute, use 3/4 in. welds at 1 ft o/c will meet the required spacing; along perimeter support
perpendicular to deck flute, the spacing was fixed at an average of 12 in. due to 36/4 pattern, which is enough here.
Before concrete is poured, bare deck must act as a diaphragm to resist some lateral load. In this case, the bare deck has a
allowable shear capacity of 185 plf per table on page 46 with no fill.
It is expected that this filled diaphragm is very rigid as the concrete both carries most of the shear and retards deck
end warping. From tables on page 33, the additional data required for stiffness calculation are
K2 = 1,056 kip/in., K4 = 3.14, Dxx = D20 = 104 ft, K3 = 2,377 kip/in.
From load table, K1 = 0.739 ft -1.
Diaphragm stiffness: 1,056

G’ = + 2,377 = 2,423 kip/in.
3.14 + 3 x 0.739 x 9
which defines a very stiff filled deck floor system.
