divreig Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I can fix this manually it always bothers me that chief randomly does this. I ask for the floor joist to be 48 inches on center. But for some reason chief always gives me much shorter spans between floor joists. Wondering why and how I can fix this going forward.

para-CAD Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Do you have parallel walls on the floor above over the close joists? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution para-CAD Posted December 16, 2022 Solution Share Posted December 16, 2022 I just opened your plan. Are you allowed to use 2x6 floor joists in your AO? Chief adds joists under parallel walls above.....just like written in the IRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, thought the joists not under parallel walls above, Did not know the at irc require this for non-load bearing wall. Not finished I am showing an existing house. The flooring is 4x6 @48" with 1.5" T&G on top and absolute boat load pers. Have only seen one other like this in my area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
