About this detail

Steel deck penetrations accommodate utility openings while preserving structural integrity. Top flutes permit a maximum diameter of three inches, while bottom flutes allow a maximum diameter of two inches. Deck webs must remain uncut. Spacing between penetrations requires a minimum of six times the diameter of the larger opening, or at least twelve inches each way.
