I know this is a little late in answering this, but I work with lexan and plexi a lot in the window/screen business.
one job, we had to remove 2 side lights in a slider enclosure, and the person had used lexan to replace the glass when it broke from a mower throwing a rock.
anyways, each piece was 12' tall by 18" (1.5') across x .25 thick
I bent one of the sheets over in 1/2 and put my full body weight (170#) on it at the crease, even jumped up and down on it several times, all to no avail.
the stuff is incredibly durable.
