How would you connect the new timber joist to existing rear bearing floor joist once the damaged material has been removed? The joists are 7"x"2", Would you use coach bolts or screws? 10mm, 12mm or what?

Cheers

Best method is to use something like 12mm allthread and bolt straight through and if you want even more piece of mind use timber connecters too .
