Key Benefits
Safe and Cost Effective
Dura Deck Aluminium has been developed in conjunction with leading developers, contractors and balcony manufacturers. It provides a safe and cost-effective decking solution for balconies and high-rise terraces, and for any project that requires an A2 fire rating.
Positive Drain
Spanning up to 1050mm between supports on a 5kN distributed load, the decking boards feature a ribbed surface to aid rainwater dispersal. Water is guided to a gutter with a floor area of over 6m2 through the clever patented design of our decking board profiles (Patent No. GB 2 615 096). When Dura Deck® Aluminium decking is combined with aluminium Dura Bearers and Dura Pedestals, a fully Class A2 fire-rated flooring system can be achieved.
Fire Tested to the Correct Methodology
Achieving an A2fl-s1 Fire Rating, Dura Deck Aluminium’s fire testing has been conducted in conjunction with the correct flooring test and installation method on a horizontal plane, for absolute peace of mind.
Advanced Structural Performance
The lightweight nature of Dura Deck Aluminium reduces the structural load on buildings. The products have undergone stringent testing to guarantee their effectiveness and performance under both point load and crowd loading in accordance with relevant building codes. Our published data meets the requirements of the most recent 2.0kN point load @ 0.5% deflection (L/200) BS 6399-1:1996) standard, rather than the now obsolete 4kn criteria referenced by many others.
