Hi,
We have an old stable, brickbuilt, with a pitched slate roof, basically used as a big shed.
Plenty of height, so I'd like to put some joists across part of it to form a storage area - probably board part of it with chipboard flooring and part left open for things like the scaffold tower sections, length of pipe etc. It will probably be the lighter, bulkier stuff stored up there, heavier stuff will stay down below
But umming and ahhing on the on the joist size, as it's not something I really have experience of. The span is about 4.4m - 4x2 sounds a bit flimsy for that. 6x2's at 600mm centres with 22mm chipboard flooring?
