  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.

  1. The maximum axial load in (pounds per linear foot of wall) is based on the short-term load duration.
  2. The lateral load deflection is limited to L/180
  3. "Empty Cells" imply no safe axial wall load for these combinations of span and wind load.
