Reply With QuoteMy advice...more is better than less. If you are planning on having anything heavy in the room...ie fishtank, washing machine etc run the joists @450mm everywhere else and double up at the load point.
cheers
joist spacing from walls Help anyone?
I'm laying bearers and joists for a cut-in yellow tongue floor. The width of floor is approx 2600. Should I set five joists at 450 centres and have 150mm of board overhanging between the outside joist and the wall, or should I increase the joist spacing to 500 centres or shell-out for another joist and lay the at 410 centres?
It looked pretty simple yesterday

Another joist or red tongue flooring
