Impact

For wall areas likely to be subject to human impact, sheeting spans should be reduced. Impact loads will vary considerably and these are not prescribed in Australian Standards. A maximum span of 1000m is suggested for such areas, but this should be adjusted dependent upon the exposure and importance of the application.
