Bending Strength & Stiffness for Structural 1 (11.9mm) Panel with Support Spacing ‘Roof-32’
| General info: | Structural 1 indicates a performance-rated panel, with superior bending stiffness and strength |
| Bending strength – stress applied parallel: | Factor of safety (F S) – 445 (lb-in²/ft of panel width) when stress applied parallel to strength axis. The strength axis is always parallel to the face and back orientation of the strands unless otherwise indicated |
| Bending strength – stress applied perpendicular: | Factor of safety (F S) – 247.5 (lb-in²/ft of panel width) when stress applied perpendicular to strength axis |
| Bending stiffness – stress applied parallel: | E I– 115,000 (lb-in²/ft of panel width) when stress applied parallel to strength axis. E I provides a measure of the resistance of the beam to bending. The larger the E I, the smaller the deflection |
| Bending stiffness – stress applied perpendicular: | E I -40,000 when stress applied perpendicular to strength axis |
| Span rating/support spacing: | Roof-32 |
| Thickness/US Performance Category*: | 11.9mm (min 11.12mm; max 12.7mm); (15/32)* |
