Metaldeck is the system that changed the concept of floor structure construction, consisting of a pre-formed steel sheet (steel deck) and a concrete slab cast over it in a monolithic way forming a composite steel floor deck.

Metaldeck is the system that changed the concept of floor structure construction, consisting of a pre-formed steel sheet (steel deck) and a concrete slab cast over it in a monolithic way forming a composite steel floor deck.

Its greatest advantages are that it:

• Improves work performance,
• Reduces concrete waste and rubbish,
• Is ideal for deck plates because it improves the waterproof conditions of the slab,
• Adapts to any type of structure whether it is made of steel or concrete,
• Has an attractive appearance that can be left uncovered in some types of projects.

This type of roofing is mainly used to cover big areas. The geometric configuration of the cross area allows big inertias to be obtained making it possible to use them in projects with low gradients (5% Min.)

To help with its handling and installation, it is fabricated directly at the work site and its length depends on the length to be covered. Another of its advantages is that it does not have overlaps in the direction of the water flow, which guarantees a totally sealed system.

ACESCO & CIA S.C.A.’s new roofing that, thanks to the design and geometry of its manufacture with reinforced trapezoids and valleys, offers great structural performance when used.

ACESCO & CIA S.C.A.’s Architectural Roofing is safe, resistant and easy to install. Its use is recommended on works where lights of less than 2300mm are used and highly decorative finishes are required.

It comes in widths of 73 cm and lengths ranging from 1.83 m to 3.66 m; also available in special measurements.

It can be used as a facade and/or roofing.

The ACESCO & CIA S.C.A. channel is a very functional and decorative roofing material, which is also resistant and easy to install.

It comes in lengths ranging from 3 to 8 meters and widths ranging from 0.46 to 0.70mm. It is used in industrial warehouses, coliseums and large ships, etc.

It is the favorite and most demanded product in the Colombian countryside. For more than 20 years it has given protection, well-being and peace of mind to thousands of homes in the rural sector, covering all their needs.

Uses: House roofing, farms, stables, barns, sheds, troughs and others.

The hot dip galvanized steel sheet is a product that combines the mechanical resistance of steel and the corrosion resistance of zinc and is ideal for commercial and industrial use.

It is used as a raw material in the refrigeration, construction, automobile and general metal industry. It comes in coils of up to 10 tons or in cut-to-length sheets in thicknesses ranging from 0.27 mm to 1.90 mm and widths ranging from 914 mm to 1220 mm.

ACESCO’s galvanized steel complies with specifications given in ASTM A653, ASTM A924 and NTC 4011* standards.

ACESCO & CIA S.C.A. produces low carbon cold-rolled steel in coils of up to 20 tons or in cut-to-length sheets in thicknesses ranging from 0.45 mm to 1.90 mm and widths from 914 mm to 1220 mm.

ACESCO & CIA S.C.A.’s cold-rolled steel is ideal for commercial and industrial use and is batch annealed and then mechanically hardened. It is widely used in the metalworking, automotive and construction industry among others. The cold-rolled steel complies with specifications given in ASTM A568 and ASTM A1008.

Purlins are light elements that allow an approximate saving of 40% in the weight of the structure and its sections optimize the weight-resistance ratio, giving an excellent finish to elements that can be seen. They are compatible with different building systems.

This product is used in the manufacture of porches, A-frames or any other type of metallic structures.

Z-Purlins are mainly used as support elementS for roofing or in some cases in very light floor structures.

Z Purlins are linking elements that are positioned at a 90 degree angle in relation to the trusses and have a geometry that generates asymmetry in relation to the horizontal and vertical central axis, which allows load concentration in the middle of the section, in other words higher inertia around both main axis.
