Use APA Technical Note Q225 entitled Load-Span Tables for APA Structural-Use Panels and ASD procedures to answer the following question.The spacing of joists in a flat roof is 40-in. o.c. Roof dead load = 5 psf. Snow load = 51 psf. Roof sheathing is to be an APA rated plywood sheathing, and panels are to be oriented in the strong direction. The load is governed by deflection limits of L/240 for snow load and L/180 for total load. Only consider these limits. Assume multi-span, normal duration of load, dry conditions, and panels 24 inches or wider. Would a panel with a span rating of 32/16 be adequate?

Use APA Technical Note Q225 entitled Load-Span Tables for APA Structural-Use Panels and ASD procedures to answer the following question.The spacing of joists in a floor system is 19.2-in. o.c. Floor dead load = 20 psf. Floor live load = 147 psf. Floor sheathing is to be an APA rated OSB sheathing, and panels are to be oriented in the strong direction. The load is governed by bending and shear for total load. Only consider these limits. Assume multi-span, normal duration of load, dry conditions, and panels 24 inches or wider. Would a panel with a span rating of 40/20 be adequate?
