A 2x8 board, which actually measures 1.5 inches by 7.25 inches due to milling, has a strength that depends on the wood species, grade, and the load it will bear. Generally, it can support significant weight for construction purposes, often used in floor joists, rafters, and beams. Its bending strength and stiffness are sufficient for many structural applications, but exact load capacity can vary based on span and support conditions. For precise calculations, it’s best to consult span tables or a structural engineer.
