    Default Bathroom Bearers and Joists Span

    I have gutted a bathroom (approx 3000 x 2000) including removing suspended slab floor

    I am putting in a new floor and am using second hand 100 x 70 hardwood from a previous demo as the bearers and joists (I have enough even though it may be overkill for joists)

    I am going to tile using approx 6" square tiles

    I am wondering...
    what is the max span for bearers and joists using this size timber?
    and also,
    yellow tongue or red tongue structa floor or compressed fibro?

    Thank you
    John

    IN a bathroom - joist span 1200 @ 450 centers , bearer span also 1200 . distances are the same for single span or continuous spans.

    Use compressed fibre cement if you can - much better.
