EPIC METALS CORPORATION
Specialty Deck Systems are available from Epic Metals to enhance the appearance
and expand the purpose of a metal deck system. These systems make it unnecessary
for a designer to limit the form and function of a building to whatever capabilities
basic floor and roof decks possess. The information below is intended to introduce
you to Epic Specialty Deck Systems; and to challenge you to incorporate into your
next building a product that exceeds ordinary metal deck systems. Please contact
Epic Metals for additional information.
Epic has been a manufacturer of quality floor and roof deck products since 1968.
Today, our product line features Specialty Deck Systems including:
EPICORE®
Dovetail shaped ribs set this deck section apart from ordinary profiles.

THE SYSTEM
Prior to the introduction of SUPER WIDECK, spans in excess of 35 feet
were limited to precast concrete panels or a maze of steel joist.
SUPER WIDECK eliminates the unfinished appearance of precast or joist and
deck construction. Instead a clean plank finished ceiling is provided without
the additional time and cost of installing a separate ceiling system. While other
plated deck systems leave the finished ceiling surface with a pattern of 4 rows
of weld indentations and marks along the length of each sheet, SUPER WIDECK
provides an embossed surface. The appearance is achieved since SUPER WIDECK
is attached together 3 inches to 7-1/2 inches above the finished surface of the
ceiling inside the valley.
With the acoustical option of SUPER WIDECK superior acoustical performance
is available to any system currently on the market today. Across many frequency
ranges a noise reduction coefficient of 1.00 is possible.
The SUPER WIDECK system can be 80% lighter than the precast concrete panel
alternative and when assembled at the jobsite considerable freight savings will
be achieved. The weight savings provided by SUPER WIDECK can be transferred
into additional savings in the structural steel framing and eliminating some foundations.
Acoustical insulation is diagonally placed inside of the SUPER WIDECK profile
to provide the maximum noise reduction over the broadest level of sound frequency
levels. Modifications can be made to accommodate the specific acoustical requirements
your project may have.
