NOTE: For gratings with serrated bearing bars, the depth of grating required to meet a specified load and deflection criteria will be 1/4" greater than shown above.

A l t e r n a t i ve B a r S p a c i n g C o n ve r s i o n Fa c t o r s
The loads shown above are for type 19-4 and 19-2 gratings. To determine the load carrying capacities for alternative bar spacings, multiply
the loads given by the following conversion factors (Deflection remains constant): For types 15-4 and 15-2: 1.26
For types 11-4 and 11-2: 1.71
