shed floor joists 2x4 or 2x6
So, what is the proper shed floor joist spacing? spacing joists in your shed 16-inches on center will give you a firmer feel with less bounce and increase the load capacity of the floor. while you may be ok with the joist span at 24 inches the floor will be maxed out to the limits.. Wide sheds have 2x4 floor joists 16" o.c. the 10' and 12' wide buildings have 2x6 floor joists 16" o.c. all our sheds are mounted to 2 double 2x6 treated skids. a mr shed is easy for us to move, something we often do for our customers.. If the floor joists are 2x6 then the band joists should be 2x6. when you place a wall on the band joists you want to transfer the weight to the ground. with a 2x4 band joist and 2x6 floor joists it is problematic. most small sheds use all 2x4s for the floor and band joists. a large shed might need larger joists. check your plans. this is very. shed floor joists 2x4 or 2x6
I have a shed built completely with 2x4s: studs, mud sills, top plates, and rafters. of course, the "skin" is plywood and siding. for a shed you're generally okay with 24" centers, rather than 16". for your floor, since you're not using a concrete slab, you will probably want 16" centers. – billdoe jul 6 '17 at 20:38. My 10x12 shed will have a concrete pier foundation. on the piers will set pre treated beams, size undetermined, and on the beams will set 2x8 floor joists. i think 2x6 would work for 10' joists but i'm being paranoid and thinking 2x8. on the piers i was thinking of using 4x6 beams along the 12' span and tie them together with pre treated 2x6's on the 10' ends..
