What is the maximum span over which a K-series joist (such as 14K1 joist) can be used?

What will be an ideal response?


The maximum span over which a K-series joist can be used is obtained by multiplying its depth by 24. Thus, because the depth of a 14K1 joist is 14 in., the maximum span over which it can be used = 14 in. × 24 = 336 in. = 28 ft.
