RE: Roof Joist Spacing
There are specialty products, etc, available that permit other spacings, however I only ever have non-1200 or 2400 multiples on jobs when the client/architect has specified that such products will definitely be used.

Deck requirements are probably the most limiting factor

I am not limited by depth and wanted to know if there were any reasons why i could not use a 24" or 30" deep joist at 7'-6" or 8' on center?
Thanks for your inputs.
