Anyone ever see a weight limit for a pedestrian bridge?? Or has anyone ever posted a pedestrian bridge? If so did you use PSF kn the sign? An overall safe weight-like in elevators? Number of people? I have a bridge that is 140ft that i want to post for around 50 psf...

I saw a young man retrieving parts at a local car parts store. I noticed he walked funny when he was up on the mezzanine. They told me that they had convinced the kid that in order to keep the mezzanine load below the 50 psf posted on the big sign, that he had to walk with his feet at least two feet apart at all times, especially when carrying parts.
 
Sign below load limit posting on a pedestrian bridge: "Do not exceed posted load. Place all coins in the tray to your right before crossing. Pick up an equal number of coins from the tray on the opposite side".
