Nothing. A 2x4 laid flat and supported on its ends that are 8 feet apart cannot even support its own weight.

depends on how far the 2, 2x4's are spanning
Usually, a load bearing wall will be perpendicular to the roof ridge.
You will need to go to the level above the wall. If girders, joists or another wall is supported by your initial wall, then that becomes a 'load'. Supported by by the wall downstarirs, Thus bearing a load
Cubic mean load for antifriction bearings refers to a specific method of calculating the equivalent load that the bearing experiences during operation, particularly when subjected to varying loads. It is derived from the cube root of the average of the cubes of the loads applied over a given period. This calculation helps in assessing the bearing's life expectancy and performance under fluctuating load conditions. By using the cubic mean load, engineers can ensure better reliability and efficiency in bearing applications.
The recommended spacing for horizontal studs in a load-bearing wall is typically 16 inches on center.
bearing capacity is the capacity of soil or strata that can be able to sustain the load of superstructure in the unit of load per m2 either ton/m2 or KN/m2 bearing pressure is nothing but bearing capacity example when you apply 100 KN on a unit area, equal opposite pressure will rise from the soil. load / area = bearing capacity
what is the load bearing weight for a 2x6x10
Joist
Before you can calculate the load bearing capacity of a scaffold, you will need to know there are three types of scaffolding; light duty, medium duty, and heavy duty. Now you can calculate the load bearing capacity by using the height to base ratio.

Load bearing capacity of the soil

Bearing capacity of soil= Load carried by soil / unit Area Definition : The safly retained capacity by soil is termed as SBC(Safe Bearing Capacity) of soil. While you design a footing , it is the main factor to consider . To calculate the area of footing Area of footing = load/ SBC
There are multiple uses of the term in the construction field, but end bearing is a term which usually specifies that a member (a floor joist for example) is resting on or abuting a vertical member (a load bearing wall for example). The more the end bearing (the area of vertical wall contacting the separate member) the more the load can be distributed evenly. In the example given, if the horizontal member supported more weight than the end bearing capacity, it could crush the sill of the load bearing wall and cause the system to fail.
