Just heard back from the contractor.

He said the way they would do it would be to throw in another joist and connect the other joists together with 8 foot 2x6s and then support the joists with one or two teleposts. The concrete floor will support 2000 lbs per square inch. As long as the telepost has a wide food print it should be ok.
