  1. The panel deflection listed above is the instantaneous deflection due to live load. The dead load deflection can be calculated from the ratio of (DL/LL). The long-term deflection of dead load is about 2.5 times its instantaneous deflection in dry service conditions.
  2. The panels should be used in dry service conditions only.
