RoofDek D60 is a 60mm deep trapezoidal roof deck with an 800mm cover width and 200mm pitch, sitting between D46 and D100 in the RoofDek range.
Available plain, or with web perforations to pattern 4546 for acoustic absorption. Perforating costs span — in 0.70mm steel the maximum single span falls from 3005mm plain to 1355mm perforated — so the two variants specify differently.
Maximum spans plain are 3672mm single and 4923mm double in 1.20mm S280. Capacity depends on span, gauge and span condition; full load/span tables for all six material specifications are on the datasheet.
Supplied in Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® pre-finished steel, galvanised steel and aluminium, 0.70mm to 1.20mm. Contact us for site-specific load calculations.

LIGHTWEIGHT ROOF DECKING FOR COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL
Maximum single span 3672mm; 4923mm over a double span using sheet continuity — both in 1.20mm S280.
Available plain or with web perforations to pattern 4546 (4.5mm holes at 6.3mm triangular centres) for acoustic absorption.
Tested acoustic system: weighted absorption coefficient 0.55 (LM), Class C, sound reduction index Rw 39dB — perforated D60 0.7mm with Rockwool build-up, without trough infills.
Rain noise on 0.7mm deck measured at 52–60dB (ISO 140-18 draft)
Non-fragile to ACR (M) 001:2000, Class B single and double span, when fixed to the manufacturer's specification
Aluminium option weighs 3.72 kg/m² against 8.04 for 0.70mm steel — under half the deck weight where structure is critical
Load/spans calculated to Eurocodes 3 and 9; a fixings check is also required
Finishes: Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® pre-finished steel, galvanised steel, aluminium
STRONG YET LIGHT — DECKING FOR BIG BUILDS
Features
Profile Type: Trapezoidal
Profile Depth: 60mm
Cover Width: 800mm
Trough depth: 64mm, narrow flange width 90mm.
Bearing & Support
Designed bearing width of 100mm on purlin. Both broad flange and narrow flange moment capacity data provided.
Transverse Resistance
Internal and end transverse resistance (Rw) data provided. Perforated variant has significantly reduced Rw vs solid.
Shear Capacity
Design shear capacity (kN/m) detailed for all gauges. Solid sections significantly outperform perforated variants.
Perforated Pattern
Pattern 4546 (46% open area) — 4.5mm diameter holes a
Benefits
Medium-Span Efficiency: D60 is the first profile in the RoofDek range offering genuine medium-span capability up to 5.00m on solid sections, filling the gap between shallow and deep profiles.
Optimised Bearing Width: 100mm bearing on purlins ensures structural stability without requiring additional reinforcement for most applications.
Material Flexibility: Available in S220 and S280 steel grades plus aluminium, allowing specifiers to balance cost against performance.
Acoustic Options: Web perforated variant with pattern 4546 (46% open area) provides 10.7% exposed soffit opening for acoustic absorption in open-plan spaces.
Proven Track Record: RoofDek D60 is established across warehousing, commercial, retail, and industrial sectors with decades of field performance data.
Pre-Finished Options: Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra available single or double-sided for enhanced aesthetics and durability.
Applications
Building Types and Applications
The D32S system is ideally suited for lightweight commercial applications:
Lightweight commercial buildings
Industrial facilities with purlin systems
Educational buildings
Retail and office developments
Applications requiring economical shallow profiles
Span Range: 1.2m to 2.8m for typical applications
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
Technical
Exposed Soffit: When the soffit of the perforated deck is exposed to the interior environment (open-plan office, retail, leisure), the VCL must be positioned UNDERNEATH the tray (above the deck). This prevents moisture from entering the void and affecting the acoustic treatment or insulation.
Ceiling-Protected Soffit: When a suspended metal framework (MF) or other ceiling system creates a separate interior environment below the deck, the VCL may remain above the tray. The ceiling system then provides the primary moisture barrier.
Pattern 4546 Characteristics: 4.5mm diameter holes at 6.3mm triangular centres provide 10.7% exposed soffit opening and 46% open area. This geometry delivers acoustic absorption in open-plan spaces while maintaining structural integrity.
Transverse Resistance Impact: Perforated variants show significantly reduced transverse resistance (internal Rw and end Rw) compared to solid sections. This is by design and does not indicate structural deficiency when properly specified for the intended span and load case.
Shear Capacity: Perforated sections have approximately 20% of the shear capacity of equivalent solid sections. Ensure shear demand does not exceed the perforated section capacity for the given span and loading.
