Subflooring Questionable
I think tiling is a non-starter with this floor?
I was considering tiling the kitchen and dining room but I’m not so sure the subfloor is good enough.
The joists are 9.5” I-Beam ( if that is what you call it ) with a span between joists of 32”
The joist supports are 10’ apart.
There is a 1 1/8” tongue and grove over the joists.
Are these joists too far apart to consider tiling even if additional plywood is added?
Thanks

Think we would need a engineer to figure out your deflection with those I-beam's. You will probably need the manufacturer name (should be printed on them). 32" is pretty wide for a standard joist spacing, so not sure about I-beam.
