What table would you use to calculate the span for a joist that also spans cantilevers?

To calculate the span for a joist that also spans cantilevers, the appropriate reference is R502.3.3(1). This code section specifically addresses the span requirements for floor joists, taking into account the effects of cantilevers.

In this context, it provides guidance on how to determine the maximum allowable span for joists that also extend beyond their supporting walls or beams, which is essential for ensuring structural integrity and safety. The reference may include specific tables or charts that give values based on various factors such as joist size, spacing, load conditions, and the presence of cantilevered sections.

Utilizing this information helps builders and contractors design safe and compliant structures by following the established standards in the Minnesota building code.
