Gender Identity. A person's internal, deeply held sense of their gender. For transgender people, their own internal gender identity does not match the sex they were assigned at birth. Most people have a gender identity of man or woman (or boy or girl). For some people, their gender identity does not fit neatly into one of those two choices (see non-binary and/or genderqueer below.) Unlike gender expression (see below) gender identity is not visible to others.
Sleeper joists are wooden boards installed on top of an existing subfloor that are typically used as support for hardwood flooring. The sleeper joists follow the same arrangement and spacing as the main home joists located under the subfloor.
No matter how sound your subfloor is it will still flex. If you run your hardwood with the joist then it is going to flex easier than if you ran perpendicular. You also run the risk of over time the plywood sagging between the joist thus giving the floor a rolling ocean look if the hardwood is run with the joist.'m going to be installing a hardwood floor in my foyer that opens up to the kitchen at the end of it and a den to the right side. The foyer is 15ft long and 7ft wide.
