ABSTRACT:
A steel floor construction for freight hauling vehicles includes a plurality of elongated floor planking members arranged in side-by-side relation to provide a load bearing floor with a nailing groove between adjacent planking members. Each plank includes a downwardly open channel member having a relatively wide central web supported along its edges by integrally formed downwardly extending flanges, with the web being reinforced along its length by an upwardly directed generally U-shaped member welded to its bottom surface and having a pattern of anti-skid projections die-formed on and project upwardly from its top surface. The channels are progressively roll formed from a continuous length of strip steel by passing the strip through a series of forming roll pairs. A pair of die rolls are employed between two adjacent sets of forming rolls, with the die rolls being driven together and cooperating to form the anti-skid projections by a cold forming process after the sheet has been partially formed into this channel shape by passing through a plurality of the sets of forming rolls. The U-shaped reinforcing member is welded to the strip after the anti-skid projections are formed.
