Safari Building Products supplies profiled steel decking for suspended concrete slabs throughout Perth and Western Australia.

Often referred to simply as “Bondek”, this type of permanent steel formwork is available under several manufacturer product names, including LYSAGHT BONDEK, Condeck HP and KingFlor.

For most customers, these products perform the same broad role: the profiled steel sheets provide a working platform and support wet concrete during construction, then remain in place as part of the completed slab system.

We treat them as one steel-decking product category rather than three separate customer choices. The particular brand supplied will depend on your structural specification, required profile, project requirements and current availability.

Send our Canning Vale team your drawings, required sheet lengths and quantities, and we’ll provide a suitable product quote.

ONE PRODUCT CATEGORY, DIFFERENT MANUFACTURER NAMES

BONDEK, Condeck HP and KingFlor are established manufacturer names for profiled steel decking used in suspended concrete slab construction.

Although the products have the same general purpose, their exact profiles, cover widths, thicknesses and engineering properties can differ. If a particular product has been nominated on your structural drawings, please tell us when requesting a quote.

Where no specific brand has been nominated, we can help identify an appropriate available product for pricing. Any proposed substitution must be accepted by the project’s structural engineer before ordering or installation.

WHY USE PERMANENT STEEL FORMWORK?

Depending on the selected product and engineered slab design, profiled steel decking can provide:

• Faster installation than conventional removable formwork

• A safe working platform before the concrete pour

• Less stripping and handling after pouring

• Reduced temporary propping in suitable applications

• Composite action between the steel deck and concrete slab

• Potential savings in labour, reinforcement and construction time

• A clean, consistent soffit beneath the completed slab

Slab thickness, reinforcement, spans, support conditions and propping requirements must be confirmed using the current manufacturer documentation and the project engineer’s design.

Are BONDEK, Condeck HP and KingFlor the same product?

Can one brand be substituted for another?

A substitution may be possible, but generally it should be accepted by the project’s structural engineer. Differences in profile, thickness, cover width, spans, slab design and propping requirements need to be considered.
