I have an outdoor shed that has a high pitched roof that will allow an upper floor to be added. The pitching starts at 10 feet. To lay a floor down, what size crossbars should I lay down left to right so that I can place plywood on top of this that will provide good stability for support. The floor will contain boxes and overflow items, but not heavy items such as machinary.

Are 2 X 4 beams heavy enough, and if so, how far apart should they be? I assume 3/4 inch plywood is acceptable as the floor on top of the plywood.

Thanks
