Dear Sir/Madam
I engineering DNV classed offshore container. I calculated floor bending stress and deflection. I calculated floor panel max. deflection from "Roark " formula for stress and strain . Each floor Panel size is 1100mm x 400mm x 6 mm thickness. uniform load assume is 22.32 KN/m^2. How can I calculate allowable deflection to compare with actual max. deflection? We assume allowable deflection is L/360, L is 400mm, Is is correct? I doubt that 360 is too much. Where can I get proper value to get allowable deflection?
I greatly appreciate any reply .
Thank in advance
