Span Calculations
100 psf @ 12" Span
W = 100 psf
w = 100 psf x .5ft = 50 plf
M = (1/8) wl2
M = (1/8) 50 x (l)2 = 6.25 ft-lb for 100 psf at 12" o/c span
 
50 psf @ 16" Span
W = 50 psf
w = 50 psf x .5ft = 25 plf
M = (1/8) wl2
M = (1/8) 50 x (l.33)2 = 5.56 ft-lb for 50 psf at 16" o/c span
 
60 psf @ 15" Span
W = 60 psf
w = 60 psf x .5ft = 30 plf
M = (1/8) wl2
M = (1/8) 50 x (l.25)2 = 5.86 ft-lb for 60 psf at 15" o/c span
