Chequer Plate Design

The document provides input data and results for the design of a steel checker plate floor subjected to uniform live loading. Key details include: - Plate dimensions are 30 feet by 6.6 feet with a thickness of 13/16 inches - The plate has a uniform live load of 250 psf and all edges are pinned - Results show the maximum flexural stress of 13.83 ksi is less than the allowable of 27 ksi and the maximum deflection ratio of S/114 is less than the allowed S/100.
