Ripped out the old ensuite and one of the floor I-joists is partially rotted. It has dried out, the leak occured before we moved in 18 months ago. Top flange is soft about half way (1 cm) but not crumbling away, the web and bottom flange are ok.
I was going to add wood to the webbing to support a sunken floor for a curb less shower like the image. Would that be enough extra support or is there anything else I can do to support the damaged I-joist?
