Key-Lock Deck Joint System
The preferred metal forming system for concrete flatwork to be used in conjunction with metal decking.
Materials
KEY-LOC® Joint is manufactured from 24-gauge galvanized steel. It is furnished in 10’ lengths for 2 1/2” to 6” slabs.
KEY-DECK® Supports are manufactured from 14-gauge galvanized steel and are available in four sizes which adjust to accommodate 2 1/2” to 6” slabs.
Installation
- After placement of metal decking, secure KEY-DECK® supports by attaching with sheet metal screws.
- Adjust KEY-DECK® supports at both ends of pour to finished floor elevation. (If using vinyl cap, adjust supports 3/16” lower.)
- Stretch string line over entire length of pour and adjust remaining KEY-DECK® supports to finished floor elevation. Use five KEY-DECK® supports per 10’ section of KEY-LOC® joint.
- Hang joint on supports and push downward. To insure perfect joint alignment, snap-in splice at joint ends. Pour against keyway side of joint first.
