I want to build a fireproof roof deck. Any suggestions?
Our house burned down. I want a fireproof house- no wood in the structure at all (even the neighbor’s stucco house with stucco wrapped eves and concrete tile roof burned to the ground). I would also like a deck over the whole house. I can’t find construction details. Closest I’ve found is to put steel decking on concrete block walls, pour concrete on decking to make a composite deck, put insulation board over that, then EPDM, then some form of slip sheet, then pebbles, then pavers. Seems a little complicated. Where can I find a detailed construction detail that is fireproof and leakproof?
I once supervised the construction of a deck over parking at a condo. The bottom slab was supported by concrete joists. On top of the bottom slab was a membrane and protection board. On top of the protection board was one inch of clean sand. On top of the sand was 2 inches of concrete that I later sawed control joints every 2 feet and then sawing perpendicular every 2 ‘ forming 2 foot squares. I sawed to minimum one half inch. Went rather quickly. The concrete joists could be substituted with steel joists but want be as fireproof or as decorative.
You could pour a 7 1/2 inch thick reinforced slab supported at least every 12′ with columns arranged to fit inside interior walls of the ground floor and then do the membrane/protection board and paving on top. Should be simple for a structural engineer to design.
