How much weight can hardwood flooring support between joists?
Typically you would not put hardwood flooring directly over the joists. You should first put down a subfloor.

What are the best methods for repairing floor joists using floor joist repair plates?
The best method for repairing floor joists using floor joist repair plates is to first assess the damage to the joists and determine the appropriate size and type of repair plates needed. Next, secure the repair plates to the damaged joists using screws or nails, making sure they are properly aligned and flush with the joists. Finally, reinforce the repair by adding additional support, such as sistering new joists alongside the damaged ones. Regularly inspect the repaired joists to ensure they remain structurally sound.

How do you frame a ceiling for drywall installation?
To frame a ceiling for drywall installation, first, measure and mark the layout of the ceiling joists on the walls. Then, install the ceiling joists perpendicular to the wall studs, spacing them according to building codes. Next, add blocking between the joists for support. Finally, attach the drywall to the ceiling joists using screws or nails, ensuring a smooth and even finish.

How can I effectively run wires through the ceiling?
To effectively run wires through the ceiling, you should first plan the route to avoid obstacles and ensure safety. Use a stud finder to locate ceiling joists for support. Drill holes in the ceiling for the wires to pass through, and use cable staples to secure them along the joists. Consider using a fish tape or wire snake to guide the wires through tight spaces. Finally, test the connections to ensure they are secure and working properly.
How do you put in new joists when you have old joists in the stone foundation?
Joists are support beams made of timber (wood), steel, or reinforced concrete. These beams support the floors of each level of a house or building, as well as the roof.You need to first identify any trimmer joists, those around staircases or chimneys. Second, and most importantly, you need to identify the "load bearing" joists. Third, remember you cannot remove joists without FIRST installing a temporary joist right beside the one you intend to remove. Consult the DIY article in Related Links.The main premise in joist replacement is to correctly re-support the house with new load-bearing joists, but to do so, you must support the load with temporary supports before putting in the permanent replacements. This is accomplished with jacks that support the house and temporary joists. I'm NOT an expert, BUT if I remember correctly, once you've supported the main load points, you insert a temporary joist beside the old or support it on a jack for every joist throughout the area in which you are working, (e.g. a basement). Then you replace the highest load-bearing joists first. Last, you'd replace the lowest-load-bearing joists. So it is a 3-step process: (1) insert temporary joist right beside the old (2) remove/replace the old with the permanent joist with a correct load-bearing wood/timber/steel/concrete (3) remove the temporary joist.If you are not a construction worker, be sure to consult an expert first to get information about how to calculate the "load" factors for the specific house. You may want to hire a contractor to do the job.NOTE: If you remove existing joists incorrectly, the risk is that the load in that area is higher than in other areas, so the structure could:be weakenedexert a "twisting" on the structure due to load forcesbe damaged or may collapse.Disclaimer: This answer is formulated from knowledge gained when working with a contractor during home construction, BUT not as a skilled worker. Therefore, please consult a professional for your safety and to hear a professional's advice / direction.
