Composite Action Synergy
The raised roll-formed mechanical embossments lock directly into wet concrete, transforming the profile sheet into permanent positive tensile bottom steel reinforcement for the fully cured slab.
Engineering Excellence Since 2009
Structural Galvanized Floor Decking Solutions
Paneltech International LLC manufactures precision-engineered galvanized steel metal decking sheets at our facility in Barka, Sultanate of Oman. Designed as a high-strength multi-deck profile system, our metal decking serves both as safe, heavy-duty permanent formwork during construction and as high-tensile reinforcement for composite concrete slabs.
Roll-formed from premium certified structural steel coils, the deck features engineered surface embossments along the profile ribs. These mechanical keys bond firmly with the cast concrete, preventing longitudinal slip and transferring horizontal shear forces seamlessly to create an unyielding, high-load-bearing composite floor.
Z275 / G90 Zinc Protection
Yield Strengths up to 550 MPa
ASTM / BS Standard Compliance
Custom Cut-to-Length Delivery
By eliminating the requirement for traditional timber shuttering and reducing temporary prop supports, Paneltech metal decking accelerates structural erection schedules by up to 40% while significantly reducing total dead load across multi-tier steel and concrete framing systems.

Why Specify PTI Decking
Structural Advantages for Contractors & Engineers
Engineered to deliver unmatched structural efficiency, worker safety on active floor levels, and long-term diaphragm rigidity.
Accelerated Build Speeds
Acts instantly as an OSHA-compliant safe working platform. Multiple stories can be sheeted, laid, and poured consecutively without waiting for cumbersome timber formwork stripping.
Superior Corrosion Resistance
Supplied with thick Z275 hot-dip zinc coatings to guarantee superior resistance against moisture, humidity, and aggressive coastal GCC air before, during, and after concrete placement.
Reduced Concrete Consumption
Trapezoidal rib voids significantly reduce the volume and dead weight of concrete required per square meter compared to flat slab designs, lowering structural foundation costs.
Diaphragm Lateral Stability
When mechanically fastened to structural steel framing or secondary purlins, the metal deck acts as an effective horizontal diaphragm, distributing seismic and wind shear forces safely.
Proven Fire Endurance
Engineered composite floor slabs incorporating PTI metal decking have been assessed and tested to fulfill fire rating requirements from 1 to 4 hours with standard mesh reinforcement.
Project Versatility
Widespread Engineering Applications
Trusted across the GCC and international markets for robust performance in commercial, institutional, and industrial steel building construction.
Commercial High-Rises
Office towers, bank headquarters, and mixed-use structures where reduced dead weight enables higher elevation spans.
Industrial Mezzanines
Heavy machinery platforms, warehousing storage intermediate floors, and factory staging facilities requiring high load capacity.
Parking Structures
Multi-level parking garages requiring long continuous spans, dynamic load resistance, and corrosion-resistant zinc barriers.
Infrastructure Hubs
Airport terminals, railway stations, bridge pedestrian walkways, and public transportation facilities with rapid assembly demands.
Prime Certified Steel 100% prime structural galvanized coils with complete mill test certificates (MTC) traceability.
Computerized Roll-Forming High-precision roll-forming lines guarantee consistent rib geometry and flawless side lap interlocks.
Export Packaging Stacked in rigid bundles strapped with wooden spacers and corrosion-resistant wrappers for container sea shipping.
Full Building Package Supplied alongside Paneltech Z & C purlins, flashings, and edge trim closures for total envelope continuity.
Procurement Guidance
Frequently Asked Questions
Key technical and commercial details for international buyers, structural designers, and general contractors.
During installation and wet concrete curing, the metal deck operates as a sturdy working deck and permanent formwork capable of supporting dead loads, wet concrete, and construction personnel. Once the concrete reaches full compressive design strength, precision embossments cold-formed on the profile webs bond with the concrete slab. This shear interlocking enables the steel deck and concrete to function together as a unified composite beam/slab system, with the steel sheet acting as the bottom tensile reinforcement.
Selection depends on beam/joist spacing, anticipated live and dead loads, slab depth, concrete density, and whether un-propped construction is required during the pour. Paneltech manufactures profile depths from 45 mm up to 75 mm with sheet thicknesses from 0.70 mm to 1.50 mm. Our technical engineering division assists clients in analyzing span tables to identify the most cost-effective profile gauge.
Yes. Panels are roll-formed to custom lengths determined by the structural engineer's shop drawings to eliminate expensive on-site shearing. Sheets are closely nested and steel-banded with timber dunnage blocks for safe flatbed truck delivery across the GCC or container stowage for maritime export worldwide.
Every shipment is accompanied by comprehensive Quality Control documentation, including Raw Material Mill Test Certificates (MTC) validating yield strength, elongation, chemical composition, and certified zinc coating weight (Z180 to Z275/G90) in accordance with BS EN 10143 and ASTM A653 standards.
