2 ResinDek HD robot and product load values above are calculated with 225 uniform loads at 16" center supports
3 ResinDek Xspan load values above are calculated with 375 uniform loads at 16" center supports
- For flooring used with corrugated B Deck: Please note load values above are calculated on 36" beam spacing, increased spacing will increase deflection and/or decrease capacity.
- For flooring solutions without B Deck: All allowable loads are determined based on a two-span condition. Uniform load values are established on L/240 deflections; any deviation can affect these values positively or negatively. Please reach out to UW Solutions' ResinDek brand for other span conditions. The calculations and load tables to the left have been compiled using specified calculation methods and assumptions. The provided loads are intended for informational purposes for preliminary studies and should not be referenced in structural studies. It is recommended to contact an accredited engineering office or architect to conduct a comprehensive stability analysis.
