Hi. Now that my chimney breasts are removed I will be sorting joists out.
Here are the pics to give you an idea.
Any pointers would be appreciated
With this one I am thinking of removing 3x2 and replacing with 7x3 (pink) and then another 7x3 on wall. Then will add several 3x2 (orange) in between perpendicular. The current joists measure 7x2.5 but I'm assuming 7x3 should be ok.
something like this
Additional joist willgo perpendicular from joist on left to neighbours joist on right. I will also tie in to strengthen joist.
Something like this
Cheers
