Noggins are required in general to keep the joists correctly aligned and to stop them from twisting.
The OP appears to want them to support the join between two boards - to stop the boards from deflecting if you step on a join half-way between two joists.
Good - Only needed for alternate noggins! Phil
clamp a bit of wood to joist in intended position to use to brace noggin for direction nail is driven.
Would it be any good to use two angle-brackets at the end of each noggin, like these gizmos?
Would they be strong and stable enough?
