posi joist design problems - intersection with lintels...

[sean1933]

Thank you all for your very informative and helpful posts - certainly given me a lot to consider outside of the issue at hand. Once I have the floor joist final design I'll be sure to double check with my SE, same re the lintel point loads.

 

I cut out the suppliers 'expert' designer and went straight to Wolf (Easi Joist). Having spoken to their tech lead he advised the follow solution was easiest. They can spec a top cord bearing joist with an additional block section below (basically a piece of 4x2!) I can spec any dimension but can simply oversize and trim down on site. A simple solution which is basically the trimmable joist I was looking for in the first place, but this way it is trimmable vertically rather than horizontally. If anyone else has this problem again it is called a 'top cord web post detail'.
