Ecospan - Structural Floor System
Another option that uses composite joists is our Ecospan Structural Floor System, which uses a Shearflex fastener instead of a welded shear stud. The self-tapping, self-drilling heat treated Shearflex® fastener not only attaches the deck to the joists but also acts as the shear connector between the steel and the concrete.

Fabricated with precision at Vulcraft and Verco plants across the United States, the Ecospan® Structural Floor System boasts an outstanding high strength-to-weight ratio, making it the perfect choice for multistory residential and commercial buildings where column-free areas are needed. It also incorporates the advantages of an open-web configuration, providing even more design and installation flexibility. Our innovative Shearflex® Fastener will both attach the deck to the joists and also act as the shear connector between the steel and the concrete, saving time and eliminating the need for welding equipment.
Vulcraft’s Ecospan® Structural Floor System is a flexible building option that will help take your project to the next level. One unique advantage to the Ecospan System is that the open web configuration creates space for electrical, HVAC, and plumbing to be run through the webbing, allowing for design flexibility and easy access to MEP.
