What are Tectum Roof Deck Systems?
Tectum roof deck systems are structural acoustical panels that carry roof loads while also serving as the finished ceiling. The panels are made from cement-bonded wood fibers, creating a rigid deck that absorbs sound across the entire surface.
These systems are installed as part of the structural and roofing assembly, typically spanning between joists or framing members. Our scope includes panel layout, installation, fastening, and coordination with both structural and roofing trades.
When to Use Tectum Roof Deck Systems
Tectum is used where large open spaces require both structural decking and consistent sound control across the full ceiling.
It is commonly used in buildings with exposed ceilings, such as gyms and auditoriums, where a clean, uninterrupted roof appearance is preferred without the need for additional acoustical treatments, helping reduce overall project cost. The system performs best when spans, framing, slope, and roofing are considered early in the design.

Our Tectum Roof Deck Installation Process
1. Pre-Construction Coordination
Review spans, framing layout, and integration with the full roof assembly before installation begins.
2. Technical Planning
Confirm panel types, bearing conditions, and fastening requirements based on actual framing conditions.
3. Submittals and Approvals
Prepare and submit documentation aligned with project specifications and system requirements.
4. Installation and Sequencing
Coordinate material staging and install panels according to layout and fastening requirements, aligned with structural and roofing trades.
5. Final Review and Closeout
Complete documentation and verify installation meets project and inspection requirements.
