Does floor joist height increase with length of joist?
Not really. All joists will be the same whether you are working on a 1st or second floor, so your floor does not have a bunch of different levels. Usually we use 2 x 12 lumber, doubling joists which have walls above them or decreasing the spacing if you are at the limits of the span. example you have a 22' span in a garage with living area above it, you would use 2 x 12 with 12" on center spacing.
