A HODY steel-concrete composite floor consists of a unique trapezium profiled steel sheet, which functions as permanent formwork and reinforcement, additional reinforcement (as
detailed in the following illustration) and a minimum layer of C20/25 quality concrete.

The result is an extremely strong, fire-resistant, sound insulating,
relatively thin lightweight composite concrete floor that provides a simple to install cost effective solution. During the curing period, HODY sheets constitute the formwork supporting the weight of the
concrete and allow the transfer of weight from the assembly load to the supporting structure. After the curing period the HODY® sheets, usually with an additional layer of mesh reinforcement within the concrete produce an integral, robust composite floor.

Floor construction systems:
• HODY® on steel beams
• HODY® between steel beams
• Unsupported span
• Sound-insulating floor structure
• IFD floor structure
• Wood-concrete composite floors
• Permanently visible constructions*
*HODY® sheeting can be provided at the bottom with a polyester or PVDF coating in RAL colour. Colour options depend on availability.
