(a) Final allowable load is the lesser of the loads as determined by
deflection and stress.
(b) Actual span of stiffeners taken as 3-1/2 inches less than
center-to-center spacing of purlins.
(c) Deflection limitations: Span/240 under live load only; Span/180
under total load, assuming a dead load of 10 psf.
(d) Loads limited by stress are based on two conditions of duration
of load: two months, such as for snow (1.15); and seven days
(1.25); includes effects of 10 psf dead load.
