Trada Span Tables
- Thread starter Eddman
- Start date
point taken woody - illegally sharing something is wrong to do! 
They're on the planning portal within the ye oldie archived 1992 version of Part A. unless you want the actual Trada ones which yes you have to pay, Trada are not a charity!
i already have the Document A tables but more and more frequently i was being told by B.C. that my member sizes (oo-er!) were over stressed and need to be increased...thanks freddymercurystwin.
That's nonsense. The old tables were based on permissible stress design to BS 5628, while the modern tables are to EC 5 (limit state design). Both work to a distributed live load of 1.5kN/m² so neither table will result in over-stressed members. I think the main difference is the eurocode requirement for limiting vibration in domestic settings, which is not a stress - issue.
