Spanning Tables
The maximum recommended support spacings are based on testing in accordance with AS 1562.1-1992. Design and installation of sheet roof and wall cladding, and AS 4040.1-1992. Resistance to concentrated loads.**
Depending on support spacings used, LYSAGHT FLATDEK® can be installed as either a:
- Light foot traffic roof (incidental maintenance foot traffic acceptable); or
- No foot traffic roof (will not support the weight of a person walking on it), see tables.
The pressure considered is based on a typical awning Cpn=-0.8 and Kl=1.5 adjacent to an enclosed structure.
The tables are based on FLATDEK® fixed to supports of 1.0 mm BMT minimum. For FLATDEK® awnings applications, the awning span is often governed by the capacity of the receiver channel and its connections. This must be considered in the design of any awning system.
