Does anyone know how to simply calculate the strength/load capacity of 1/4" plywood (assume weakest species/ commercially produced ply). I am building some pantry drawers and using 1/4" for the bottoms and was curious as to the strength. The drawers are small at 15x13 so I don't think I'll have a problem, but was really curious as to how to figure this problem out. The drawer sides will be 3/4 birch cheapo HD ply with 1/4" dado's 1/2" up from bottom edges.
Thanks for any info.
