1-5/8" Roof Deck
1-5/8" Roof Deck
(OP)
Anyone come across a 1-5/8" roof deck in their work on older buildings? Flutes are about 6" wide and sheets are 24" wide. Structure was designed/built in 1965. Section modulus listed was 0.25 in3. Just looking for additional data.
Thanks!
Thanks!

All I find is 1.5" roof deck.
The definition of a structural engineer: overdesign by a factor of 1.999, instead of the usual 2.

Actually, S alone is not accurate because roof deck is not symmetric about its bending axis. There is Sp and Sn.
