[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 298501, member: 7544"] If you fill the space between ribs with foam = to the surface of the ribs you can get by with some pretty thin aluminum. My ribs are 22" on center and I used .052 aluminum on my floor and it's solid. The foam does a lot better than most think it will at supporting a load without compressing. You can see what I did with mine in my build if interested. [/QUOTE]
