I don't understand your question completely, but I think what you are asking is how far apart support can be for a subfloor or floor decking.

It will vary with the type of construction, but for residential housing it's almost always 16 inches between the floor joists. That would be measured from the center of the joist to the center of the next joist.

Can you use decking paint on interior wood floor?

No, you should not use any exterior coating product on an interior surface, for a couple of reasons: (1) Exterior products are made to expand and contract with temperature extremes, so they are more rubbery - they will not stand up to the greater abuse of interior use; and (2) Most exterior products contain mildewcides and fungicides, which put off toxic fumes - indoors, these fumes can be concentrated and could cause illness.
