How much force the upper-deck floors of the 747 and A380 before collapse ??
Anyone have any rough idea how much force the upper-deck floors of the 747 and A380 can carry before they collapse.
Any destructive testing ever done ?

If there are new materials involved, there probably were component tests conducted to validate the analytical results.
Otherwise, floor beams on widebodies are pretty straightforward, established technology dating back to the early DC-10 baggage door accidents.
