Old quirky house - can I span 1 meter with 2x2 for a floor ?

[wwwebber]

Trying to sort out bathroom floor which has differing levels on the floor (dont ask - old house). I can make the entire floor level if I lower a 1 meter span section of it - however I only have 2 inches of height to play with due to many reasons - can I span 1 metre with 2x2 and short centres ?

Thanks all.

That should be ok.

I'd be tempted to use 100x 50 studwork laid flat

You can always do this if it'll fit. You only need the thickness mid span.

Good idea, just avoid the banana's, especially if buying from Wickes.

agreed, they seem to specialise in expensive firewood!
