I’m feeling like sanity checking before I proceed with fab’ing the floor in the cockpit. So what are different designs using for weight bearing floor where a pilot would step on it to get in? And secondary question the same for cargo area. Aluminum examples most relevant.
Currently have 0.025 skin with floor separated by 2” vertically by c channel stiffeners on 6” centers leading to the longerons and frames. Creates a box section when floor is attached.
