Default Re: Klegecell for Floors / hatches

Depends on the thickness of the composite as well as the layup schedule you use over and under it. There are several kinds of composite Klegecell, Corecell, Divinecell etc... For a floor I'd use 5/8 inch and at least two layers of 1708 top and bottom. For hatches I've used 3/8 inch just to fill in the middle of the hatch. No matter how you do it your stringers must be spaced properly to support yout floor. Composite is great if you want light but not necessary if you use good quality plywood and a good lay up schedule.
