Thank you Sir, its been a long time since I have been in building houses and remodels. over the years I forgot the measurements to use for splicing. you did a great job explaining this. Thank you.

An old garage, used 2x6's nailed to 2x4's, with the 2" side as nailers for the 2x6's. There were 3 runs of 2x6's, so, the beam was 18" high. except, the 2x4's, were closer to 3x4's. (1950's rough cut). The man that built it, owned a sawmill (lol). the beams were huge, and caught your eye. The man built it for square dancing (lol).

In the top example there is no mention of a backing board unlike the bottom example, is there a reason? Should backing such as OSB or other type of board be used to reinforce the top example?

If you liquid nail the cut, it is not necessary. It would not hurt to reinforce it.

Hi, can these methods be used for load bearing, i.e. with the spliced beam positioned horizontally, and the load coming from above? Thanks.

I have never done it, nor have I seen anyone do it. The only place I have seen it done is for rafters. You might say a beam is a type of splice but in that case it would be doubled or tripled and it is supported at intervals. For regular floor joists I wouldn't recommend it. To much could go wrong when trying to splice them.

Can I use this method for a ridge beam? I’m building a 24’x24’ covered patio and was trying to avoid using a massive 6x10x24 board. Could I join two 12’ boards? It’s just a 2 gable roof

You can, but you will need longer boards if your going to splice

@@timpalmer-logstolumber1999 yes sir. It’s actually about 24’ wide and about 21’ out. I was wondering if it would be too weak or if it would bow?

@@justus9069 if glued and nailed properly it should not. What will cause it to bow is if the other end that's sitting on the plate or header starts to bow out. You will need ceiling joists to keep it from bowing out.
