Question: 1 4 . If the joists in Question 1 3 must span a distance of 5 ft , what size of joist would be required

14. If the joists in Question 13 must span a distance of 5 ft, what size of joist would be required to support the calculated loads assuming a two-span continuous situation?
15. Based on the loads in Question 13 and assuming that the joists were supported by beams that were to span 10 ft, what total load would result on the shore posts supporting the beams?
16. If the shore posts in Question 15 had an unsupported height of 10 ft, what size of wood post would be required, assuming an S4S section with an allowable compressive stress parallel to the grain of 1,100 psi is to be used?
