Does anyone know how I can establish the load bearing capability of 3.5m long 800mm x 50mm joists.

I need to establish the total load bearing capability (evenly spread weight) of a floor which is 3m wide, 6m long and is supported by 200mm x 50mm joists spaced at 400cm centers.

Unfortunately my contact (a structural engineer) is away until the middle of June and I need to ascertain this information quickly.

Thanks in advance for any advice/information offered.
