Floor Joist Material
Hi there, what are floor joists in Victoria typically made of. I think from either 1970s or 1980s house. Here is a pic.

Its hardwood (don't know which one) and poor quality for construction purposes too

Looks more like ceiling joists, floor joists are almost always 4x2 or 100 x 50 in modern language, that stuff, which looks of pretty poor quality, looks to only be 100x32, or 4x1&1/4 , too light for floor joists.

Looks like a mixed lot of Southern Hardwood. Could be anything.
