Hi,
I've had a good look at joist sizing tables but none seem to account for my, non-load bearing situation.
My garage is 6 x 7m and I'm building stud walls around the perimeter (I will insulate and cover in ply wood). Now I'm looking to spec a ceiling and need to size beams.
They will need to span 5.8m unsupported, and does not need to be load bearing except for the ply wood, fluorescent light fittings and some insulation.
I'm assuming C24 and 400mm centres.....but very much open to other suggestions!
Thanks in advance!
