SELECTION & SPECIFICATION
FEATURES:
- 500mm Cover – easy sheet coverage calculations.
- Hi-tensile Steel – lightweight and high strength with improved damage resistance.
- Bold Ribs – provide better performance with an architecturally pleasing profile.
- Quick Installation – wide design provides fewer clips (preloaded if desired) ensuring effective cost saving.
- Secret Fixing – concealed clips for enhanced security and appearance.
- 1° Minimum Pitch – in long lengths to save support structure.
- Fully Tested – a full range of load performance tables to suit almost any application.
APPLICATIONS:
The visual appeal, light weight and weather resistance of Stramit Speed Deck® 500 decking make it ideal for many commercial roofing applications. The large water-carrying capacity and weather-tightness permit very low roof pitches, leading to economies in the building structure.
MATERIALS:
Stramit Speed Deck® 500 decking is manufactured from hi-tensile G550 BlueScope Steel COLORBOND® XRW steel or BlueScope Steel ZINCALUME® steel. In some locations galvanised and Colorbond® Ultra steel may be available by arrangement. Colorbond® XRW (and Ultra) is in accordance with AS2728 – Category 3 and, for the substrate, with AS1397. Zincalume® AZ150 and galvanised Z450 conform to AS1397. Stramit has a comprehensive range of Colorbond® colours as standard. Refer to the BlueScope Steel Colorbond® 18 colours chart available from Stramit, and ask your nearest Stramit location for colour availability.

ADVERSE CONDTIONS:
Stramit Speed Deck® 500 decking will give excellent durability in almost all locations. With all of its fastenings protected beneath the decking, Stramit Speed Deck® 500 decking can be expected to outlast through-fixed roofing. It is however important to choose the correct coating for each application environment. The table below shows the suitability of coating types for different exposure conditions.

COMPATIBILITY:
All building products need to be checked for compatibility with adjacent materials. These checks need to be for both direct contact between materials, and where water runs from one material to another. The following guidelines generally avoid material incompatibility:
-
For Zincalume, Colorbond XRW and galvanised roofs avoid copper, lead, green or treated timber, stainless steel and mortar or concrete.
-
In addition galvanised roofs should not receive drainage from aluminium or any inert materials, such as plastics, glass, glazed tiles, Colorbond and Zincalume.
TESTING:
Stramit has in-house, purpose built, testing equipment used to design, develop and improve products for the Australian market. In addition many Stramit products are tested or witnessed by independent organisations.
These include:
-
Cyclone Structural Testing Station
(James Cook University)
-
The University of Sydney
-
Monash University
-
CSIRO
-
University of Queensland
-
University of Technology, Sydney
This ongoing research and development activity ensures that Stramit remains at the forefront of innovation, design and consumer information.
