A joist is a primary horizontal structural member designed to support floors, потолки, or roofs, transferring loads to beams or walls. It is typically larger in cross-section and spaced farther apart (НАПРИМЕР., 400-600mm intervals).
A batten serves as a secondary element, often narrower and lighter, used to secure or stabilize cladding, кровель, or façade systems (НАПРИМЕР., fixing metal panels or tiles). Battens are closely spaced (100-300мм) to distribute point loads and enhance weather resistance.
