What's the height to the bottom of those 2x4s? Code will require minimum 80". You'd do better with 2x6s if you have the head space. 2x4s even spaced closer will still feel bouncy.
82.5 inches with the 2x4s
I wanted to do 2x6s but I need 82 inches for the rough out for the door.
I don't care how many studs are in the ceiling so I plan to place as many as I can fit and still have space to install the joist hangers.
The landing is only 45" x 45" with 2x4s spaced every 6 inches do you still think I would get bounce? I can't imagine a 2x4 flexing over a span of 45 inches. The landing has a plywood deck on top and then 3/4" wood planks over that.
