Hi everyone,Long time lurker, but first time posting for advice! Thanks in advance for all the feedback.I'm working on building a loft in my garage, and wanted a sanity check / advice on my current design. My garage has about 22' ceilings - it would be a shame to waste all that vertical space. Here are some of the details:* 2 16" x 1.75" LVL Ledger Boards connected to existing studs on opposite walls using FastenMaster Timberlok screws (directly above concrete foundation)* 16" x 2.5" Engineered Lumber I-Joists, 16" OC, connected to ledger boards using top mount joist hangers* OSB subfloor acting as lateral bracing* The clearspan is about 22' across the garage, depth of the loft is about 12'I've added links to a couple screenshots of my current design. Thank you so much in advance for any advice!https://ift.tt/2FsgvQn via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/2Js3ueN
