With reference to Table 7.1 and Table 7.2, asupporting frame is a structure of angle or channel or folded section of sheet metal, which is attached toand has the same outside dimensions as the enclosure surface, and which has torsional rigidity to resistthe bending moments that are applied by the

45、enclosure surface when it is deflected. A structure which isas rigid as one built with a frame of angles or channels has equivalent reinforcing. Constructions withoutsupporting frame include:a) A single sheet with single formed flanges formed edges;b) A single sheet which is corrugated or ribbed;c)
