Method for installing metal roof and floor deck to a structural steel frame
An ergonomic method for transporting and installing a sheet of metal decking in a composite floor or roof structure having underlying I-beams. A carrier with a flat top surface is loaded with the next sheet of decking to be installed in the next open position on the beams. The carrier has an inclined surface and upon reaching the next open position the next sheet of decking is rested on the inclined surface with lifting hooks. An ironworker pushes the next sheet of decking down the inclined surface towards the next open position and working the ends of the next sheet of decking with ribs and flat sections therebetween into alignment with the I-beams with lifting hooks which engage the ribs while standing on the previously laid deck.
