Tectum Identifier Guide

Efficiently Identify Tectum I Products

Utilizing the right products is crucial to the success of each replacement project, but it can be difficult to determine which Tectum deck is needed. At Tectum Replacement, we’ve simplified the process for identifying the correct roof deck panels.

Step 1

Determine the Type of Tectum Roof Deck You Need

Do you have a Tectum I roof deck panel or a composite roof deck panel?

Do you have a Tectum I roof deck panel or a composite roof deck panel?*

Step 2

Choose Your Configuration — Plank or Tile?

Configuration Options:*

Tectum I Plank

Tectum I Plank panels are identified by their tongue-and-groove long edges and square-cut ends.

These structural roof deck panels are manufactured in standard widths of 31 inches.

Tectum I Long Span (LS) Plank

Tectum I Long Span Plank is similar to standard Tectum I Plank but includes a cold-rolled steel channel inserted into the tongue-and-groove profile to increase structural spanning capacity.

The LS panels are machined slightly differently along the edges to accommodate this steel reinforcement.

The steel channel will be the primary way to differentiate the Tectum I Plank from the Tectum I Long Span Plank.

These structural roof deck panels are manufactured in standard widths of 31 inches.

Tectum I Tile

Tectum I Tile is typically used in bulb-tee roof deck systems.

These panels are distinguished by their rabbeted edges, which allow the tile to seat correctly on the bulb tees, with grout applied in the joint to lock the system in place.

There is an option for tongue-and-groove ends (on the narrow ends) while maintaining rabbeted long edges.

Tectum I Tile panels are available in standard widths of 31.5” and 32.5”. Custom panel widths are available and require a longer lead time.

Tectum I Plank — Maximum Allowable Spans*

2" panel thickness: max span = 36"

2.5" panel thickness: max span = 42"

3" panel thickness: max span = 48"

My span exceeds these measurements

Span is the center-to-center distance between adjacent bar joists or structural members.

Tectum I Long Span (LS) Plank — Maximum Allowable Spans*

2" panel thickness: max span = 48"

2.5" panel thickness: max span = 60"

3" panel thickness: max span = 72"

My span exceeds these measurements

Span is the center-to-center distance between adjacent bar joists or structural members.

Enter Tectum I Plank Span Length (inches)

To find the correct thickness of the Tectum I panel, be sure to measure a section that is not damaged, warped, swollen, or deteriorated — these conditions can change the thickness and result in an inaccurate measurement.

Tectum I Tile — Bulb Tee Spacing*

24"

32"

33"

48"

Bulb Tees sit on top of the structural members, forming a grid-like layout when viewed from above.

Step 3

Enter the Panel Length, Width, Thickness, and Quantity

Enter Length of Panels (inches)*

Enter Width of Panels (inches)*

To find the width of Tectum I planks, measure from the center of one bevel to the center of another bevel. Measure from the center of the bulb or truss tee to the center of a parallel tee, and then measure the face width of the tee as well.

How Many Panels Are Needed?*
