Legend: U = Safe Uniform Load (lbs./ft.²); C= Safe Concentrated Load (lbs./foot of grating width); D = Deflection (inches).
For serrated grating, the depth of grating required for a specific load is 1/4" greater than in the table.
Notes: The carrying capacity of a piece of grating subjected to a concentrated load over only a portion of its width is determined by the stiffness of both the bearing bars and the cross bars, and therefore differs with the type of grating used. To determine the carrying capacity of gratings subject to such loadings, the manufacturer's engineering department should be consulted. 1/4" is considered the maximum deflection consisent with pedestrian comfort, but can be exceeded for other loading conditions at the discretion of the engineer.
F=20,000 psi, E=28,000,000 psi (For Alloys 304L and 316L, F=16,500 psi and tabular values for U, C, and D shall be multiplied by 0.825) All loads and deflections shown are based on engineering computations using gross sections and nominal sizes of bearing bars. The values listed are for design selection only and are not intended to be "absolute" since actual load capacity will be affected slightly by variations which can beexpected due to material and manufacturing tolerances.
Conversion Factors:For gratings with other than 1-3/16" bearing bar spacing, or for different design stresses, proportionate conversion factors apply. Refer to the Metal Bar Grating Engineering Design Manual for the development of such factors.

Cross Rod Spacing

The image on the left should show the spacing between the bearing bars ( 1 3/16" ) and the spacing between crossrods ( 2" and 4" ). The paragraph should have some text that will summerize the image as well as give material ( stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, etc. ). There also needs to something that states the stock grating type, size, etc. As well as the stock panels width ( nominal ) and length.

Legend: U = Safe Uniform Load (lbs./ft.²); = Safe Concentrated Load (lbs./foot of grating width); D = Deflection (inches).
For Serrated grating, the depth of grating required for a specific load is 1/4" greater than in the table.
Notes: All loads and deflections are theoretical and based upon the gross sections of the bearing bars, using a fiber stress of 18,000 psi. The values are not intended to be absolute since the actual load capacity will be affected by the slight variations in mill and manufacturing tolerances.
*Weight per square foot based upon 15-W-4 grating. Add .60 psf for 2" on center cross rods.
**Maximum pedestrian load is defined as a 100lb uniform load with ≤ 1/4". The 1/4" maximum deflection criteria is considered consistent with pedestrian comfort, but may be exceeded for other loading conditions at the discretion of the specifying authority.

For Serrated grating, the depth of grating required for a specific load is 1/4" greater than in the table.
Notes: All loads and deflections are theoretical and based upon the gross sections of the bearing bars, using a fiber stress of 18,000 psi. The values are not intended to be absolute since the actual load capacity will be affected by the slight variations in mill and manufacturing tolerances.
