Like to get some feed back on Floor loads. Have a one room school house. OC load will be 25 or less. Used one maybe two afternoons a year. I would like to see some feed back of floor loads. I have run some numbers and want to see if others agree or where they would place the load. This is a historic building with newly made desks a total of 18. Only load will be by visitors with the max to be 25. Real number would 15 to 20 people at a time.
Size of the building 35' long & 23 feet wide. Joist run the long length. floor covering is 3/4 yellow pine flooring 2 3/4 x 3/4.
Joists are 3x8" hem fir in good condition spaced in 2 sections 24" oc. The front third is 16" oc. The spans are broken in to three section. From the front at 16"oc joist run from stone walls to stone wall. This would be the first third. From the first intersecting stone wall to an 10/22 I beam and then again to a stone wall. A bearing points are 6"+/-.
