Looking for some resource info on doubled floor joists. Particularly doubling every other joist when using 16″ centers.
I’ve got a span of about 12′-4″ (I know it’s alittle on the long side for 2″x8″ span)on a house using 2″x8″ joists at 16″ o/c. Every other joists is doubled.
Anyone have a span table for this situation? I know some building inspectors shun the idea, but others are o.k. with it.
Thanks All
