Load Calculations for Plywood

Dead Load = 2500 kgs/cu.m x 0.2 m 2500*0.2 500 kgs/Sq.m

Live Load = 375 kgs/Sq.m

Self weight = 85 kgs/Sq/m

TOTAL Wt W = 960 kgs/Sq.m

STRENGTH CRITERIA

W = 960 kgs/Sqm
2
MAXIMUM BENDING MOMENT = WL /10

= (960X.425X.425*100)/10
M MAX = 1734 Kg.cm

SECTION MODULUS (Z) = BH2/6 cm3

= (100*1.2*1.2)/6 (12mm ply=1.2cm)

= 24 cm3

12MMPLY = 1.2CM
BENDING STRESS (M/Z) = 1734/24 Kgs/Cm2

72.25 Kgs/Cm2

DATA AVAILABLE:
BENDING STRESS,WHEN GRAINS PARALLEL TO SUPPORT= 871 Kgs/Cm2
WHEN GRAINS PERPENDICULAR TO SUPPORT= 598 Kgs/Cm2
ACTUAL BENDING STRESS = 72.25 < 871 Kgs/Cm2

Hence it is safe
