Load Span calculator
Use this quick calculator to provide you with a rough guide for sheet
deflection and width for a given load.
The
results from the formulae used in the calculator are based on the
following limits:
1.5 Safety factor against pop-out or sheet buckling
15mm effective edge engagement
Deflection limit of 4% of the span
which we would recommend as good design practice.
For
further clarification view the following drawings
Deflection allowance
drawing.
Edge
Engagement drawing.

1. Select the sheet thickness you require
2.Enter the load, as this facility is intended to be used as
only a guideline, loads can not be calculated greater than 1.5kN/m^2
if you require further information contact Technical support.
