Timber floor rating with steel plate
Timber floor rating with steel plate
(OP)
There is a timber floor (3" thick by 6" wide)spanning 8' between support beams. There is 1" plank flooring running transverse to the 3" timbers. How do I calculate the available floor loading, accounting for the 1" transverse plank flooring.
I have the same question for a 3"x6" timber floor with 1/4" steel plating on top. What is the available floor loading.
I can calculate the available loading of the 3"x6" timber, but not sure how the plank floor and steel plate distributes the load and should be calculated. I know this definitely increases the available loading.
