A rough opening refers to a framed building opening for your planned window. It has a header across the top, a sill plate across the bottom, and vertical trimmers on either side. for windows that span 4 feet (48 inches) or less, such as 42 inches, or 45 inches, you need a double 2×6 size header. Thus, a double 2×6 size header is most suitable for a 4-foot-wide window or opening.2-grade 2×6 joists can span up to 10 feet 9 inches from beam to beam when spaced the standard 16 inches apart with a maximum live load of 30 inches per square foot. In comparison, No. -1 grade lumber can span slightly further to 10 feet 11 inches under the same parameters.
