How much weight can a 2x10 hold?
The weight a 2x10 can hold depends on various factors, including the wood species, span length, load type (uniform or concentrated), and whether it’s used in bending or compression. Generally, a 2x10 made of common framing lumber (like Douglas fir or Southern yellow pine) can support around 1,200 to 2,000 pounds when used as a beam with a reasonable span. For more precise calculations, it’s best to consult engineering tables or a structural engineer.
Can a 2x10 be used for a 20 feet patio cover?
Yes, a 2x10 can be used for a 20-foot patio cover, but its suitability depends on various factors such as the spacing of the supports, the load it needs to bear (including snow, wind, and the weight of the roofing material), and local building codes. It's essential to consult with a structural engineer or a building professional to ensure that the dimensions and materials used will provide adequate support and safety for the structure. Proper installation and reinforcement may also be required.
What size beam to span 10 feet?
To determine the appropriate beam size for spanning 10 feet, several factors must be considered, including the type of wood or material, load requirements (e.g., live load, dead load), and the beam's orientation. Generally, for a standard residential application using lumber, a beam size of 2x8 or 2x10 might suffice for moderate loads; however, consulting local building codes and a structural engineer is essential to ensure safety and compliance. Always factor in any specific conditions that may affect load-bearing capacity.
Will a floor with true 2x10 joists along with a .75 hardwood floor 15' span and 16oc support a 5'x5' area carrying 900lbs?
That only shows to be 36lbs per s/f...........should be fine..
What size joists should be used for a deck?
For a deck, 2x8 or 2x10 joists are commonly used, depending on the size and load requirements of the deck.
What size I-beam is required for a basement beam that needs to span 25 feet and will support 2x10 floor joists spanning 12 feet?
These calculations are not difficult, but you must know the load (including the floor weight) that will be carried. And the deflections that the appropriate building regulations allow.
Can you use 2x6 for deck joists?
Yes, 2x6 lumber can be used for deck joists, but it may not be as strong or durable as larger dimensions like 2x8 or 2x10. It is important to consider the span and load requirements of your deck when choosing the appropriate size for joists.
What size joist should be used for a deck?
For a deck, 2x8 or 2x10 joists are commonly used, depending on the span and load requirements of the deck.
What is the maximum span of a 2x10 pressure treated pine floor joist?

How much space between floor joist?
16 inches center to center, 14 1/2 between them.

How much weight can a mobile home bathtub hold?
It will hold more weight than you can ever put into it !- My floor joists are 2x10 at 16 inch intervals, and I installed a 48 x 60 spa tub that holds about 20 cubic feet of water, that weighs around 1200 pounds. Include two average people in it and you have over 1,500 pounds ! - The floor holds just fine .
What are the load-bearing capabilities of a 2x10 span in a residential construction project?
The load-bearing capabilities of a 2x10 span in residential construction depend on factors like the type of wood, span length, and load requirements. In general, a 2x10 made of standard lumber can typically support a floor or roof load of up to 50 pounds per square foot over a span of around 10-15 feet. However, it is important to consult a structural engineer or building code requirements for specific calculations and recommendations.
Are -2x10 and -5x25 equivalent?
No, they are not equivalent. 2x10 = 20 and 5x25 = 125.
Can 2x6x12 be used for deck joists?
Yes, 2x6x12 lumber can be used for deck joists, but it may not be the most common choice. Typically, 2x8 or 2x10 lumber is preferred for greater load-bearing capacity and spacing. The suitability also depends on the span between supports and the anticipated load on the deck. Always consult local building codes and guidelines for specific requirements.
