Q: Most states or territories have building codes, or basic requirements that new homes and other structures are required to meet during construction. It’s important to familiarize yourself with the unique building codes for your area before you get started, as they can dictate everything from your basic materials to the type of measurements you use.  You can find a copy of your local building codes by running a quick search for “residential building codes” plus the name of your city, state, or municipality. In some areas, you may even need a permit to install a floor yourself for it to be considered up to code. If your floor isn't up to code, it’s possible that you could be fined or even forced to pull up the entire structure and start over. Before you begin cutting or measuring, grab a pencil and paper and sketch an outline of your floor. Your sketch should depict the floor's basic shape and layout, complete with any additional features like alcoves, nooks, and staircases. Extremely long spans, staircases, or interior walls typically require additional support, which can complicate your framing plan. In this case, your floor framing project will be best handled by a licensed contractor. Fill in your outline with specific measurements for each area where you’ll be installing a separate piece of lumber. If your floor is going to be 12 feet (3.7 m) x 18 feet (5.5 m), for instance, note that you'll need a total of 4 12 ft (3.7 m) boards and 4 18 ft (5.5 m) boards for the outer frame, as well as multiple 18 ft (5.5 m) boards cut to size to serve as the main floor joists.  Stick-framed floors typically consist of 3 main components—the sill plate, which goes on top of the concrete foundation, the rim joists, which box in the edges of the sill plate, and the floor joists, which run parallel to one another to provide internal support. The exact number of floor joists you'll need will depend on the size of the floor. As a general rule, floor joists should be spaced 16 inches (41 cm) apart for maximum stability. Draw and label your framing plan to scale and double-check each of your measurements to make sure they suit the structure’s size and support requirements. Once you’ve drafted your framing plan, review it carefully to determine exactly how much lumber you’ll need. The simplest way to do this is to add together the length of each individual section in feet. For example, 4 12 ft (3.7 m) boards + 4 18 ft (5.5 m) boards + 9 18 ft (5.5 m) joists = 282 feet (86 m) of lumber.  Remember, your calculations should reflect the combined length of the outer frame (multiplied by 2 to account for both the sill plate and rim joists), as well as each of the joists. It’s a good idea to order 15% more lumber than you think you’ll need so you’ll have enough in case of waste. After you’ve ordered the lumber you need, use a circular saw to cut each piece to the dimensions you listed in your framing plan. To frame a floor that's 12 feet (3.7 m) x 18 feet (5.5 m), you would need 4 12 ft (3.7 m) sill plate boards, 4 18 ft (5.5 m) rim joist boards, and 9 18 ft (5.5 m) main floor joists.  At most home improvement centers, you can also have your lumber cut to the desired specifications when you order it. Label each piece of lumber with a pencil after you cut it (for example, “sill plate” or  “main floor joist”). This will make it easier to keep track of where it goes later on.
A: Research the building codes for your area. Draw up a basic floor framing plan. Label the dimensions of your floor framing plan. Add up each part of the framing plan to calculate your materials. Cut your boards to size.

Q: If you’ve had unprotected sex and are concerned that you could get pregnant, take the morning after pill, which is also called emergency contraception, as soon as you can. In most cases, you can take the morning after pill up to five days following unprotected sex.  Be aware that many states require women under the age of 17 to get a prescription for morning after pills.  You can take the pill anytime during your menstrual cycle.  The morning after pill is a safe and effective way to prevent pregnancy. However, you shouldn’t use this as a regular form of birth control. While everyone can use over the counter emergency contraception, it may not be as effective for every woman and some may be allergic to it. Make sure to read and understand any indications or contraindications that come along with emergency contraception.  The morning after pill may be less effective for women with a Body Mass Index (BMI) over 25.  Certain medications such as barbiturates, or other supplements such as St. John’s Wort may decrease the effectiveness of the morning after pill.  If you are allergic to any component of the morning after pill, it may be less effective. If you use any kind of morning after pill, you may experience some side effects. These usually subside after a few days.  You may experience nausea or vomiting after taking the morning after pill.  You may feel tired, dizzy, or have a headache after taking the morning after pill.  You may have breast tenderness, and lower abdominal pain or cramping after taking the morning after pill.  You may experience bleeding between periods or heavier menstrual cramps after taking the morning after pill.  Contact your doctor immediately if you experience bleeding or spotting that lasts longer than a week or if you have severe abdominal pain 3-5 weeks after taking the morning after pill. This can help rule out an ectopic pregnancy. One of the most common side effects of using emergency contraception is nausea. If you vomit within an hour of taking the pills, repeat the dosage.  Don’t repeat the entire process, just the dosage you threw up.  You may need to take an anti-nausea medication to help your stomach. Only use one form of emergency contraception. Not only is using two forms of emergency contraception not more effective at preventing pregnancy, but the different types of morning after pill may actually make the other less effective. You’re much more likely to have nausea, vomiting, and other side effects from using multiple forms of emergency contraception. If you’ve taken the morning after pill and don’t have a regular form of birth control, use a backup form of contraception. This can help prevent unwanted pregnancy.  Consider using condoms as your backup form of contraception.  Use backup contraception for 14 days after taking the morning after pill.
A:
Take emergency contraception as soon as possible. Talk to your pharmacist about indications. Watch for side effects. Repeat the dosage if you throw up. Avoid using multiple forms of emergency contraception. Use backup contraception.
