I need to put together a design/bid for a large conference table. It will be about 4' by 8' with a boat-shaped top and trestle-style legs. The customer wants a formica top with oak banding, legs and stringer.
I'm in the 'design' process and am having a hard time wrapping my head around the idea of how to get the necessary structural rigidity and flatness to the top, which I am assuming I will do with the formica laminated to MDF. Should I be looking to some sort of torsion box design? Please help!
