Can anyone tell me if I can use jack posts in my basement underneath Engineered I-joists to help support a heavy load on my first floor. The weight will be approximately 2500 lbs in a 6' X 2' area directly over and parallel to one I-joists.
I am concerned about the Engineered I-joists and I am trying to determine what will be the best way to help support 2500 lbs without damaging the I-joists.
