[vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]U = safe uniform load (psf)
C = safe concentrated load (psf)
D = deflection in inches
E = modulus of elasticity, 29,000,000 (psi)
F = fiber stress, 18,000 (psi)

Material: ASTM-A-1011 standard

Deflection: Spans and loads to the right of the bold line exceed 1/4″ deflection for uniform load of 100 psf which provides safe pedestrian comport. These can be exceeded for other types of loads with engineer’s approval.

Serrated Bars: For serrated grating, the depth of grating required for a specified load is 1/4″deeper than that shown in the table.
