Hi, |I want to hang floor joists from a box lintel. At present the joists sit on top and I want to get rid of the box lintel hanging down into the room. The only way i can see of doing this is to remove a few courses of brick, push the lintel up and hang the joists from the lintel. I know I will need some tall boys to hold the wall above while i do this. I was looking at attaching a similar size joist onto the lintel and then hang the floor joists off this? If I do this, how do I tie the joist on the lintel, to the lintel?
