Maximum Roof Span

 

 

 

*indicates ultimate load divided by 3 for the design capacity. 4’ span is a minimum two span condition.

Panels require a minimum of 1-1/2” bearing.

Floor panels should have a 3/4” minimum top skin or a 7/16” top skin overlayed with 7/16” finish flooring perpendicular to the panels. More information on this chart can be found in Technical Bulletin #18 (www.pbssips.com).

Refer to Technical Bulletin #21 for floor applications (www.pbssips.com).
