At grating edges, it is common to specify a certain distance from beam centerline to grating edge. naturally, depending on flange width, the grating "cantilevers" in it's weak direction by a small amount.
What kind of clear cantilever span do you deem OK (from outer flange edge, to grating edge)? does anyone have a reference for this? I feel like 6" from beam centerline to grating edge is common, but that would be a 4" cantilever for a 4" wide beam flange.
