FORMULA EMPLOYED

SINGLE SPAN

 M  max = WL over 8                    Deflection   = 5WL3 over 384 El

DOUBLE SPAN

M  max = WL over 8                        Deflection   = 5WL3 over 384 El    

The table gives permissible spans in metres for stress limit, or specified deflection limit.

Wind loads should be calculated in accordance with CP3 Chapter V, Prt2: 1977.

When wind loading governs the design a 25% increase in permissible stress is allowed. The wind load can be multiplied by a factor of 0.8 before entering the tables.

Snow load is 0.75 kN/m2 for sloping roofs up to and including 10 deg. (BS6399 : Part 1: 1984).

RED DENOTES STRESS LIMITED. BLACK DENOTES DEFLECTION LIMITED.

The load span tables have been calculated in accordance with European Recommendations for the design of profiled sheeting.  ECCS-TC7-1983 which uses an effective width approach for flanges in compression and are based on a minimum bearing surface of 50mm.

Additional reference: British Standards Codes of Practice and Loading Criteria for Profiled Sheeting in Building (BS5427:1976).

In accordance with the manufacturers policy of continuous improvement, the manufacturers reserve the right to alter specifications without prior notice. The information contained herein is for guidance only. All dimensions and weights are nominal and may be subject to change.
