Adding structural pine joists

Hi guys,

I have a simple question that might have been asked before!

I just ripped out my bathroom t&g floor and want to add more joists for stiffening under the new door i want to open. Can i used mgp10 stuctural pine for joists or do they have to be Hardwood as existing ?

can't find any hardwood the same size 100X50 and according to span tables i can use 90x45 mpg10

any suggestions appreciated.
