Edge Support Support for Edges of Subflooring Subflooring

Text in the illustration

floor joists
blocking is required below unsupported edges of plywood or waferboard (not tongue-and-groove) panel-type subflooring and diagonal plank subflooring

Generated explanation

Two perspective drawings show subflooring supported by wood floor joists. The left assembly uses panel-type subflooring, while the right uses diagonal plank subflooring. Dashed circles and arrows highlight blocking between joists beneath the subfloor edges. The annotation specifies that blocking is required below unsupported edges of plywood or waferboard panels without tongue-and-groove joints and below diagonal plank subflooring edges.
