Aquarium ceiling load?
Good morning,
I'm moving to new premises soon and have bought a new aquarium at the same time.
I have a 200-liter tank in my current apartment (old building).
The new apartment is also an older building, but the new aquarium is considerably larger. It's a 450-liter tank, plus the weight, gravel, etc.
The pool should be located directly next to a staircase, where a supporting beam could possibly pass through if there is a wooden ceiling?
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to obtain any further data or statistical information so far, and I'm currently thinking and worrying about how best to go about this.
The lower floor would be the ground floor. Perhaps there's a different structural layout there?

You need a professional!
The weight of the aquarium in an old building with a hoz ceiling, whose load capacity can also have been clearly indicated (feuchgtigkeit ,Würmer ,etc.)
and the necessary load-bearing capacity,or a substructure which distributes the weight so that the load-bearing capacity is given,you can only identify with a specialist.
It is important that he also assumes the guarantee and liability.This costs money right,but otherwise the aquarium would be grossly negligent and it could create a really heavy damage,not only material.
No. Otherwise you can’t say anything with your information. 450kg may be possible for a single load on a single wooden beam of an apartment ceiling, depending on where it is placed.
then order the facts?
find the mistake!
If it is still ok.)It is in demand and if a stable substructure is used, the contact area/weight distribution can be made so that the load is less per square meter or on the support beam. Even modern buildings have a maximum capacity of 500 kg per square meter.
but you can not compare an old building that has been standing for the last few years with a modern bude.
if that’s supposed to be in there, then you’re not going to get around for a stunt.
in the darkest case it cracks, and your fish container stands a rod.
Completely clear.Around 500 kg.Trumm you could have come up with the idea.
