Joist Span Finder and More

Joist Span Finder and More is an iPhone app for quickly finding allowable spans for: Roof Rafters, Ceiling Joists, and Floor Joists; and for sizing of: Wood Studs, and Concrete Footings for wood-frame buildings designed using the conventional light-frame construction provisions of Section 2308 of 2009 International Building Code, IBC (International Residential Code, IRC similar). To make this app easy and simple, input data choices are limited to those available on the span tables of IBC Chapter 23, and footing table of IBC Chapter 18. This app is not intended to generate or replace engineering calculations (although span tables are fully based on structural mechanics).For demo video: (1) Tap App Support button below which will take you to the CrispiApps website(2) Or, on YouTube, search with keyword crispiapps or visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO-v1rAX8yY (video quality is mediocre)(3) Or, visit: http://screencast.com/t/d6cpUjfuWW (on Mac or PC only)- video quality is better
