I was suggesting he might be able to save more of the planks by using them
diagnally. But he has to fix the joists to manufacturer's specifications no
matter which way he runs them.

I'm not sure if I understand your suggestion, but putting the planks at
a diagonal, like a herringbone pattern, increases the span between the
joists. You will no longer have 18" OC, but more like 24", and that
might be too big of a span for the Fiberon.
