How do you size beam by span?

first you need to calculate the load on the entire floor. Different uses mean different loads, you look that up in the building code. Then you calculate how much of the floor is held up by the beam. Then you look up what size of beam to use for the number of pounds per lineal foot. For 1 or 2 family homes you can have a lumber yard do this for you. For commercial construction it has to be done by an architect or an engineer.

Can a basement be rented?

In some areas it is perfectly legal to rent a basement. However, make sure the basement is suitable to be used as living space, and above all, is in compliance with local building, house and fire code, as well as with city ordinances. Most codes demand that basements that are used as a bedroom have an egress window, or two safe ways to exit the basement, in case of emergency. Consult the housing authorities to see what kind of features are required. Do not rent a basement that is not 100% legal and up to code. If caught renting an illegal basement, you may face fines that will amount to much more than you would have paid to make the basement up to code.
