What suggestions would you have to increase the strength?
The I-joists have to cross the foundation at 90 degrees. I doubt there is anything they could do to increase the strength. After all I-josits are already enginered.

Do you work in the industry Tangman? What are you basing your opinion on?

I guess the real question is would it be any different then having the tank located somewhere else within the house as it would only be supported by i-joists unless you located it over a beam or reinforced the i-joist from below.

What do you suggest

Thanks
