Loading Data
Notes:
1) Load, PSF = Uniform weight of concrete + Weight of form deck.
2) Maximum spans shown are based on:
- Deflection not exceeding the more conservative value of L/180 or L/240 (as specified) or 1/2” under uniform concrete load.
- Deflection, prior to concrete placement, not exceeding L/120 under 50 lbs/SF construction load.
- Minimum factor of safety of 2.5 for Moment Capacity.
3) Form Deck panels must be fastened to structural supports in every low rib and to adjacent panels at side-laps, 18” on center.
4) The information in the tables is intended for use as a guideline only. Please contact us for assistance with material selection and information not covered such as maximum shored spans and other slab conditions.
