| Abstract | This presentation describes the development, construction, and performance of a state-of-the-art aircraft grade flooring panel. Several supported beam calculations are presented to illustrate how performance objectives and material selection issues were reconciled to give a sandwich panel offering 20 percent weight reduction and low flame, smoke, and toxicity (FST) properties without compromising stiffness and strength properties. |
