Technology / What is the impact force of dropping a 40kg weight from waist height?
« on: 04/07/2019 16:29:48 »
i am installing a gym and want to calculate whether the concrete floor will be distorted by continuous dropping of the weights.
2x20kg circular weights, dropped from a height of 1m.
Next is to work out how to calculate/test what the distortion might be without actually damaging the floor. I know of companies that provide load testing but this wouldn't be the same as the impact from dropping...?
Any help gratefully received.
