2x6 floor joist deck.
Buy 10 or more 10 78.
2x6 joists should only be used on ground level decks that do not require and will not provide for any guards.
Space between joist and beam on deck.
But you ll notice when you look at the portion of the span table for joists with cantilevers that the joist span for decks with a cantilever is often less than the span for the same sized joist without cantilevers.
Although the joists span about 6 inches farther on the former than on the latter and add a cantilever this still sets up an easy if unscientific comparison.
The general rule of thumb is maximum span is 1 times the depth of the joist in feet so 2x6 can span about 9 but that does vary depending on the type of lumber used.

I d also up the foots to 4 per beam to drop the span there to 4.
Similar to guards if stairs are to be hung from the side of an upper level deck 2x10 as a minimum is recommended as it will.
If the span is only 8 ot 9 then yes they will work.
Well my 2x6 joists are spaced the maximum recommended 16 inches on center on the new deck and 12 inches on center on the refurbished one.
