its simplest is a thin sheet of steel that has been corrugated to increase its stiffness.

Two Types of Metal Decking

Single corrugated sheets commonly used where concentrated loads are not expected to be great, used as permanent formwork for concrete ___ with a reinforced concrete slab

manufactured by welding together two sheets, one corrugated and one angle. It can be made sufficiently stiff to support normal loads without structural assistance and can offer the important side benefit of providing spaces for electrical
