Steel floor or roof decking bears on structural steel beams with specific weld and edge distance requirements for different joint conditions. Lap joints and butt joints require minimum two-inch end bearings and scheduled deck welds. Deck direction changes incorporate light gauge closures with two-inch bearing clearances. Deck offsets utilize a sixteen-gauge continuous weld plate beneath parallel members with specified slope and weld symbols.
