Common floor panel sizes are 12' by 14'. Genesis® Floor Panel sizes are only restricted to governmental transport regulations and practical handling limits.

Steel Material Thicknesses / Gauges / Spacing

Structural Light Steel floor framing members are available in 6"(152mm), 8"(203mm), 10"(254mm) and 12"(305mm) sizes. Each of these sizes are available in sheet steel thicknesses ranging from 20ga(0.84mm) up to 14ga(1.91mm). The ability to achieve varying strengths by simply increasing sheet steel thicknesses or decreasing the member spacing allows us to match any floor thickness or architectural design requirement.
