LOAD TRANSFER BETWEEN ANGLE SUPPORTS OF LINING PANEL AND ANGLE SUPPORT FOR RAISED FLOOR

Lining panel support

Raised floor support

Spacing between vertical supports = 1.5 m

Unit weight of lining panel = 14.5 kg/m2

Height of lining panel = 23.430 - 20.200
= 3.230 m
Weight of lining panel on anlge support = 14.5 * 3.230 * 1.5
= 70.3 kg
= 0.69 kN
Considerin 10% contingency, factored load = 0.76 kN

Size of raised floor panels = 600mm * 600mm * 35mm

Weight of raised floor panel = 15.7 kg per piece
Weight of raised floor panel on angle support = (15.7/2)/0.6*1.5
= 19.625 kg
= 0.19 kN
Considerin 10% contingency, factored load = 0.21 kN

Live load applied = 5.0 kN/m2

Effective width of raised floor panel supported on angle = 0.6 / 2
= 0.3 m
Live load transferred to angle support = 5.0 * 0.3 * 1.5
= 2.25 kN

Selfweight of L 40*40*4 = 2.4 kg/m

Weight of 1.5 m length = 2.4 * 1.5 * 9.81 /1000
= 0.035 kN
Considerin 10% contingency, factored load = 0.039 kN

Total load to be transferred from one angle to the other angle = 0.21 + 2.25 + 0.039
= 2.50 kN
