The Steel Deck Institute (SDI) launched an expanded website, sdi.org, with added functionality and information intended to make using steel floor and roof deck easier and more economical.
Features include the following:
- Information on past and current research to improve the design of steel deck, including links to research and university researchers.
- Links to magazine articles, webinars, and other resources for steel deck.
- Ability to order or download manuals, technical notes, and other resources.
- SDI’s standards organized by edition of the International Building Codes that reference them.
Michael Martignetti, PE, president at SDI, says, “We have an informative story to tell about steel deck, and the new website is one way that we are reaching out to designers, constructors, and building owners to make them aware of the advantages of steel deck.”
