this may sound very trivial, but would a 2x10 floor joist be damaged in any way by staples ?
i want to run a cable tv line under the crawl space but don't want it laying on the ground. so the plan is to staple it, or use screw in cable clamps - to the 2x10 joists
would this create any structural defects in the joist (load bearing capability, etc) ??? (since i know that you're not supposed to drill holes in the part under tension - so would screw/staples be something that could also damage the joist?)
TIA
