around a heavy rack, how many floor tiles can you safely remove? I'm about to embark on a large installation: compute racks will contain 38 1U servers and so weigh ~1500 lbs each. the network (Quadrics) will be installed first, before rolling in the compute racks. partly for space reasons, but also because it doesn't seem safe to have a bunch of 1500 lbs racks surrounded by a sea of missing tiles... but it would be good to know what the threshold is - how many tiles you can remove around a heavy rack before becoming crazily risky... any horror stories? ;) thanks, mark hahn. PS: 16" over slab, feet glued, stringers screwed-on, composite tiles.
