Concrete Floor Weight Limit

Concrete floor weight limit.

It does not mean that a 300 lb. The weight load capacity range for standard raised access flooring is from 1 000 to 2 000 pounds. The typical floor in many regions is made of 6 thick concrete and has a capacity of 25 000 pounds. With an evenly distributed live load of 30 psf which the tables show the floor is able to support the total weight on the floor would be about 3 360 pounds.

That being as it may concrete is rated in pounds per square inch and soil is characterized by pounds per square foot in soil bearing capacity so when you design the slab calculate the soil bearing capacity 1500 lbs per square foot is nominal divide the total load plus the weight of th. For example a properly designed office floor can support 50 pounds per square foot. Structural concrete work is planned to bear loads or hold weight but transfer the weight to the soil base beneath the structure. While for different applications different floor loading capacity is required.

Occasionally we are asked what weight can my access floor support. Load capacities of simply supported concrete slabs. It can be a disaster if the floor isn t properly built to take the weight of both the platform and its load. This is commonly referred to as the concentrated load rating of the access floor panel.

The weight load capacity range for standard raised access flooring ranges from 950 pounds 1250 pounds. The thickness of concrete is an important factor in load bearing strength but to conserve resources and avoid over building other factors are also taken into consideration. Increasing the total weight on the floor to 4 480 pounds however results in a live load of 40 psf which is beyond the floor s load capacity. Lineman standing on one leg will fall through the floor.

500 kg m2 is typical for office storage space and similar.
