Bending Strength & Stiffness for Structural 1 (9.5mm) Panel and Support Spacing ‘Roof-24’
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) – 300 (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) – 145.5 F S (lb-in²/ft of panel width) when stress is applied perpendicular to strength axis |
Bending stiffness – stress applied parallel: | E I (lb-in²/ft of panel width) – 60,000 when stress applied parallel to strength axis. E I provides a measure of the resistance of the beam to bending. The higher the figure, the smaller the deflection |
Bending stiffness – stress applied perpendicular to strength axis: | N/A |
Span rating/support spacing: | Roof-24 |
Thickness/US Performance Category*: | 9.5mm (min 8.74mm; max 10.3mm); (3/8)* |
