Wood-Cor Panel

• Steel top sheet resists deformation, Steel bottom pan completely encloses core, provides recess for edge trim.

• High-grade particleboard core selected for resistance to localized crushing and high modulus of elasticity Also provides thermal barrier performance.

• Edge strength maintained without welded channel sup-ports around panel perimeter.

• Concentrated load rating of 1,000 Ibs; rolling load rating of 600 Ibs

• Wood core provides performance-proven advantages of a solid, sturdy, quiet and comfortable walking surface underfoot

• Panels are easily cut for fit or cable penetration

• Meets Class A fire rating per ASTM E-84 test method for safety.

• All panels are interchangeable within the system, except if panels are cut for special conditions

• Mechanically locked edge trim designed specifically for Wood-Cor systems helps pre-vent lost, loose, shifting or broken trim

• Attractive trim with mitered cor-ners gives each panel a modular "picture frame" appearance.

Black or brown colors standard

• Internal wire located between top sheet and bottom pan to maintain electrical continuity for static dissipation.

• Covered with attractive, color-coordinated, low-maintenance, V,f:' High Pressure Laminate which provides long life and a static-dissipating surface Contact your USG Interiors representative for availability of alternate HPL and carpet cover-ings to suit other performance, texture and appearance requirements

Marks or Other Data Uniform Load

Test Procedure - A Donn WC 1000 panel was mounted and supported on rigid grid understructure and a load was applied to tbe panel via hydraulic cylinder and 24" square steel plate with 1" bearing block at each corner. The load was thus distributed equally to the center of each quadrant. The load was measured by Morehouse Ring Force Gauge #50554 calibrated 12/19/91.

The panel was first loaded to the uniform design load of 250 Ibs/ft2 to settle the system. After unloading, a preload of 25 lbs/ft2 was applied and both the load cell and dial indicator were zeroed. The panel was then loaded in 50 Ibs/ft2 increments to design load and deflections were read to .001" with standard dial indicator as follows.

Axial Compressive Load Tests

Ten samples of each of the following three (3) types of pedestal ba~e~ were te~tec:

, B)

A I" dia. tube resistance welded to a 4" x 4" x 1/8" base plate, at a 3D" finished floor height. ~

A 1-1/8" dia. tube swaged to 1", fillet welded to a 5" x 5" X 1/8" base plate. at a 36" finished floor height.

C) A 1-1/2" dia. tube swaged to a I". fillet welded to a 6" x 6" x 3/16" base plate, at a 36" finished floor height.

The above standard pedestal assemblies were tested for compressive load strength in a Tinius Olsen Super "L" Testing Machine. Load was applied and increased steadily to a 5000 pound proof load. at which point, the machine was stopped and the pedestal was visually inspected while supporting the load.

There was no indication of yielding. and no damage to and/or failure of. the pedestal tubes.

At this point. the loading was continued and the yield strength and ultimate strength of the samples were recorded.

Identification - Severn(R) Snap-Loe Stringer

Test Procedure and Results - The stringer was tested for lOld deflection characteristics using a hydraulic ram -with lGad and accuracy measured by • Morehouse Proving Ring in accordance with standard laboratory procedures.

~oncentrated loads were then applied through a 1- x 1- _pad at the center of the stringer. Deflections were .,sured It the upper surface of the stringer on the horizontal surflce nearest to the point of load application.

The stringer supported a 250 pound: load with no evidence of failure Ind when the load .as released, the permanent set was 1ess than .010 f nches • ' ..'.
