Wooden Hatch Beams and Fore-and-afters of Rectangular Cross Section
The scantlings of rectangular cross section hatch beams or fore-and-afters, exclusive of tongue (if fitted), is obtained from the formula:
(B× D2) / 98322 = (S × L2) / 113
where
- B =
- breadth of beam or fore-and-after, in millimetres
- D =
- depth of beam or fore-and-after, in millimetres
- S =
- spacing of beams or fore-and-afters, in millimetres
- L =
- length of unsupported span, in metres.
The following table shows size of wooden hatch beams or fore-and-afters in accordance with the above formula, for hatch openings up to 3050 mm × 3660 mm:
| Size of Hatch Opening in Millimetres | Size of Beam Fore-and-after at Centre in Millimetres |
|---|---|
