Structural Calculations
Beams and Girders
Beams or girders support floor joists over long spans.
Beams or girders May be wood or metal.
Wood beams may be built-up or solid.
Steel beams may be S-beams or W-beams.
Size based on weight of the structure and the span.
Structure Loads
Dead load is the weight of the structure itself:
Roofing, siding, joist, etc.
Live load is the fixed or moving weights:
Furniture, appliances, occupants, snow on the roof, etc.

Procedure for Using Span Data Charts
•
•
•
•
•
Select species of wood to be used.
Select appropriate live load.
Determine lumber grade to be used.
Scan the lumber grade row and note the maximum spans.
Select the joist size and spacing that will support the desired
live load (16" OC spacing is typical).
