COMPOSITE FRAMES & FLOORS
Precasters, builders, constructors, developers, flooring specialists, machine manufacturers, power plant designers, architects, and structural designers – can all enjoy and take advantage of Peikko’s solutions.
DELTABEAM® Slim Floor: Structure for open spaces
DELTABEAM® Slim Floor Structure allows you to build open spaces – even with architecturally demanding shapes. DELTABEAM® is the best alternative to post-tension flat slab.
DELTABEAM® is a superior composite beam enabling slim-floors for multi-story buildings of any type, whether low-rise or high-rise. Its composite action between steel and concrete allows for creative structures with large open spaces.
Underwriter laboratories (UL) fire tests have proven DELTABEAM® has excellent fire resistance without any additional protection. Its shallow design decreases a building’s floor-to-floor height while eliminating conflicts with HVAC systems.

DELTABEAM® Frame: The Best of Both Worlds, Steel and Concrete
DELTABEAM® Frame Consists of DELTABEAM® Composite Beams and Composite Columns.
A DELTABEAM® is made from four steel plates welded together to allow for optimization of plate thickness. Reinforcement is also added inside the beam at the plant to achieve required fire resistance once filled with concrete.
Composite Columns are made from a hollow steel section with a shop installed reinforcement cage placed inside and columns are later filled with concrete on site. Standard HSS Profiles are available in square, rectangular and round sections.
DELTABEAM® Composite Beam Benefits:
-
Slim Floor: Uniform thickness starting at 203 mm.
-
Long spans over 10 m.
-
Integrated fire resistance of up to 4 hours.
Composite Column Benefits:
-
Integrated fire resistance of up to 4 hours.
-
No curing time required to load the columns.
