tomhutch Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 I've boarded out a small loft on a single-story extension and wanted to know if anyone could work out how much load it may be able to take? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miek Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 How much load before what? It carries your weight easily enough. It would be fine for general storage IMO, just don't put a safe up there. It's only a 2m span, in my old house I had 75mm ceilings and did what you have done, but they were 3.2m spans. It was bouncy, but fine for storage.

George Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I'm not sure 3x2 (75x50 mm nom) should even be spanning 2m. TRADA tables says 1.24m for a C16 47x72mm. That said, light storage is usually OK. No books! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
