'The White Book'

Updated: Oct 6, 2019


Floor Deck Design Guide and Tables

This ‘White Book’ has been developed as a quick reference tool to be used by architects, engineers and specifiers when looking for a quick concept design for a composite slab and has been recently updated to include the new TR50 and revised R51+ profile.


Innovative User Experience!

A unique process has been developed to allow the reader to gain relevant information in a three-step process using ‘never seen before’ graphs as a visual aid to help understand what can be achieved in different scenarios. Created by our Technical duo, Jamie Turner (Technical Director) and Thom Rigden (Technical Engineer), Jamie said;

‘We wanted to create something more than just a book of numbers.  The guide helps with an understanding of the process, how to use the guide so they can gain what they are looking for’.

Client Feedback

Taking note of various technical queries that are regularly asked from clients, we have taken a view on all these problems when designing this guide.
