Deflection
to Span Ratios
- For a resilient, non-fatiguing, comfortable feel use the
STANDARD deflection to span ratio of 1:120.
- For an elevated installation, where a solid feeling is
desired, use a deflection to span ratio of 1:180 (NBC-85). A
deflection to span ratio greater than 1:100 (1%) is not
recommended. Do not exceed .5" (13mm).
Panel Selection
- Determine
the type of loading concentrated or uniform.
- Estimate
the load and determine the span.
- Decide
what maximum deflection is appropriate solid, standard or
1%.
- Enter
the appropriate 1" (25mm) table. If the deflection is
less than the maximum selected, choose the 1"
thickness. It is more economical than 1.5" thick
panels.
- If
the deflection or span is too great for 1" thick
panels, select 1.5" thick FRP Grating and
design your support system for the appropriate span.
- Select
the resin system.
Panel
Installation
- Panels
are designed to be supported on all sides.
- Use
end clips if panel ends cannot be supported.
- Use
hold down clips (page 6) to prevent panel drift.
