Footbridge Operating Load

Hello
We need to make a cleaning access gateway for a machine of our design.
And I'm looking for the load applicable to this gateway and the standard that refers to it.
This is a very temporary cleaning and maintenance access as well as staff. (access for breaking-in...)
I am making this request because I found 2 slightly contradictory pieces of information on this operating charge in daN/m2.
If someone can enlighten me on the subject.
Thank you.

Hello
I would like to see NF E 85-014.

  • 2kN/m² respecting the deflection

What contradictory information did you see?

In my kit I found this


On our side (work and rest walkway for external framework) customers indicate in the cdc an operating load of 250kg/m2 with 1/500 boom

I had also been sent 250 daN/m², as in many specifications indeed, hence the doubt with what I found in reference to the NF E 85-014 standard (200N/m²).
Thank you @Domino_Day for your fair answer and to @Lynkoa15 to confirm more precisely.
