Table of Safe Quiescent Center Loads for Hor- izontal Beams of White Pine Supported at Both Ends.â In this table the safe load is taken at one-sixth of the theoretical breaking load. This large reduction is made necessary on account of the cross-grain of timbers and joists and the large knots which weaken very materially the pieces. Where a judicious selection is made in placing the joists, laying the inherently weak pieces in places where little strain can come upon them, much saving of lumber may be made. si r Span 10 feet.
