What is an acceptable tolerance for floor joists (subfloor not laid, yet) over a 4 ft span in an old home? How far out (in height) is acceptable?

  • Sounds like Laxmidi is asking min. dim. of FJ over a 4'0" span. A Hem.Fir. / Pine 2x4 would be fine @ 16" center (spaced apart). Though anything less than 2x6 would make me uncomfortable re: deflection. Nov 25, 2016 at 3:11
