Floor Joists, I-Joist or Dimensional 2x?

Which are you using? Technically Dimensional 2x10 / 2x12 is cheaper and easier to handle (because they can not span as long)...

My joists will span the depth of the house, which is 30'.

If you are looking for more details, kindly visit i joist beam.

In my house design, I am spanning 15' to a support wall/beam. I am probably going to go with 30' 11 7/8" I-Joists, but I am considering 2x10's instead. It seems dimensional lumber holds up better in a fire, and the guidelines for notching are less strict whereas I-joists have more strict rules for cutting, notching, and the sort.
