y’ = {(225 x 50) x (132.5) + (350 x 20) x (10)} / {(225 x 50) + (350 x 20)}
= 85.5mm
= (350 x 203) / 12 + 7000 x (85.5 – 10)2 + 4746.1 x 104 + (20 + 112.5 – 85-5)2
Floor Span = 5m

Strengthened Joists
Joist Element
Resolving vertically
Q + w(dx) = Q + dQ → dQ/dx = w
Moments about A
M + w(dx) / 2 + (Q + dQ) dx = M + dM
Flooring Element
Sy (dx) bj = ∫ (𝑑𝑀)𝑦(𝑑𝑦)𝑏(𝑓𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔)/𝐼
.
Sy bj /bf = ∫ .
𝑄𝑦(𝑑𝑦)/𝐼 where dM/dx = Q
Where bf & bj are the widths of the flooring and joist, respectively.
At the support,
So,
= 0.29 N/mm2
Ignoring gluing and assuming screws with a safe capacity of 300-400N (say 350N)
Sy then becomes (1.835 / 3.063) x 0.29 = 0.174 N/mm 2, and spacing is now 41 mm
→ Gluing is critical
