Inland steel deck info

Inland steel deck info

(OP)
Hi guys!

I'm looking for load tables or any info that I can find for Inland steel deck. The existing drawings dated around 1979 called it out as 'Inland 3" W-18 ga.' being used for composite floor slab. Wondering if the "W" designation would be similar to what the SDI has now for 3" deep deck.

thanks!

Could this be Inland-Ryerson?

Not sure. It's only called out as Inland steel deck on the existing drawings.

The roof deck is called out as 1 1/2" deep type B deck, which I'm assuming is the same as the B-deck that we have today. From this info, I'm guessing that the floor deck called out as 3"W-18ga. is similar to the 3" deep W-deck that we have today but I do need confirmation that this is really the case.
