Sagot :
The correct answer is; No, because the 2 x 10 boards can support neither the width nor length of the room.
How to find the dimensions?
We are given;
Load requirement = 60 psf
Joist Spacing = 16 inches
Length of room; 13 feet 2 inches
Width of room; 11 feet 7 inches.
Since we want to consider whether 2 by 10 boards are appropriate, this length of 2 by 10 will not be appropriate because it cannot cover up for a room with dimensions of 13 feet 2 inches and 11 feet 7 inches.
Thus, we can conclude that No, because the 2 x 10 boards can support neither the width nor length of the room.
The missing options are;
A. Yes, because 2 x 10 boards can support the width and length of the room
B. Yes, because 2 x 10 boards support the 70 psf
C. No, because 2 x 10 boards can support only the width of the room
D. No, because the 2 x 10 boards can support neither the width nor length of the room
