I had to run the numbers......A California King waterbed is approximately 6 x 6 water, has 235 gallons of water @approx 8 lbs. per gallon =1,880 lbs , add in 175 lbs for the wood bed itself plus 2 occupants "we'll just assume it was in use") at 150 lbs. each = 300 lbs. Grand total on 36 sq ft floor = 2,355 lbs divide that by 36 sq ft and the load per sq ft is 65.4 lbs. A 2x 8 live load rating is 40 lbs. max inclusive of other load bearing factors inclusive of furniture, activities etc. Considering that the same combination is just 8' below the top floor waterbed, the entire The T' section should have parted like the Red Sea. I can hear it now " We ARE Farmer's and we covered it " Bum di bum dibum bum bum ! .@ Gordon Nichols Pls have Engineer Mrs. Nichols run my numbers, I should be in the ball park :~)
