You can use the following two formulae to calculate the bank angle, and then the load factor:
tan phi = vē / (g * R)
phi: bank angle [°]
v: speed [m/s]
g: gravitational acceleration [m/sē] (g = 9.80665 m/sē)
R: radius of turn [m]
n = 1 / cos phi
n: load fator

Reason: added brackets in first formula
