Load Tests
Below are load tests for the 180 gallon design - evaluated by a
professional mechanical engineer. Unfortunately it's in french but the
pictures talks by themselves. On the first (top) picture you see the load
in psi represented by colors. The maximum load (red) is applied to the two
transversal part under the top shelf under the aquarium.
On the second (bottom) picture you see the maximum deflection
represented by colors of the parts caused by the load. It says a maximum
(red) of less than 1/32 of an inch. The deflection shown in the picture is
exagerated by the software.
