Thin Pre-Stressed Decking

Cost Savings Over Wood, Composite, Conventional Concrete

The panels span further than conventional decking materials so less framing structure is required, combined with the light weight this can result in a cost savings over decking systems with wood, composite or conventional concrete decking.  Arcis can distribute decking throughout the US and Canada. 

Our thin prestressed panels work very well in applications where strength, durability and relatively light weight is required. Floating structures are one such application. Panels can be used to replace existing decking on most any type of float system or can be incorporated into new floats. 

3x Strength of Normal Concrete

The thin prestressed deck panels can be easily replaced or removed to access utilities.  Panels can be cut or core drilled.  The material is 3 times the strength of normal concrete and is proportioned to be non absorbent and freeze thaw resistant in a marine environment.  The decking panels can be made in various thicknesses and sizes, up to 6’ x 12’ panels.

“The decking offers the benefits of a concrete deck without some of the drawbacks associated with a standard concrete float”, says Wendell Stroud, Owner of Marine Floats of Tacoma.
