Loft Floor
We worked on the floor of the loft, Tim and Jeff were able to get the (2) 4x10's up for the middle girder. They hung the joist hangers first, then lifted them up and through bolted them to the Ridge Pole Support logs. The 4x10's were quite heavy, but we managed to get them up without the chain hoist.
Here's Tim making sure the girders are secure....hah.
Here's one of the outside rim joists. These are lag bolted the same as our first floor. This way the entire loft is supported by the RPSL's & wall logs. We'll be adding about 450 square feet of loft area/storage with this.
Close up of the 3/4" threaded rod that secures the 4x10's to the RPSL.
