The live load on the floor is 3 kn/m2; can people walk on it?

Since a person’s foot surface area is approximately 0.05 m2, and assuming a weight of 100 KG, the required load should reach 2000 KG/m2 (20000 N/m2). Why is the live load on the floor only 3 KN/M2?

Everyone also needs to relax and understand!

Static pressure is different from dynamic force, right? When you step on a scale, the impact weight is higher than your actual body weight. Also, when working, a person has to bear weight while stepping; does this force need to be taken into consideration? Is there still a design margin needed?

Yeah. I mean, why is the live load on the floor specified at only 3KN/M2 in the design drawings? It’s generally understood that it will collapse as soon as someone stands on it

Based on the data, there is a significant drop in forum-related figures every weekend and holiday, which is in line with the living habits of most people!

No wonder my post has been up for half a day with only 1 view

If there are any objections, report them; it also depends on the actual quality of the materials used. Maybe something was missed or the labeling is incorrect?
