I have a condo which was built in the 80's and the floor truss joists are sagging and need to be reinforced. The worst area is in my kitchen, which falls directly below two bathrooms in the unit above. In the kitchen however, there is a major duct running through the joists perpendicular so there really is no alternative except to add 5"x5" Tube Steel members parallel to the joists along the underside of the deck. Unfortunately with two bathrooms directly above they've added both wood flooring AND ceramic tile over the years so now the worst failing area is right in the middle of my kitchen and one particular joist is literally about to snap and fail. There is a shower drain on one side of the worst joist, (they notched the top flange of the truss on the right side about 1"), AND on the opposite side there's a toilet stack where they notched the OTHER side of the top flange about an inch and a half. Needless to say I have to find a way to really support that truss and it's not as simple as reinforcing this joist. We need to add something alongside and find a way to fit it in around the plumbing. The shower drain comes down into a p-trap and currently crosses back through open web of the the joist and ties into the other toilet stack. If it weren't for this single shower drain we have a perfect slot to slide in a tube steel support right under the demising wall for the bathroom. I am hoping to re-route this shower drain and basically turn it 90 degrees and tie it into the 3" main which runs perpendicular over the right end of the side wall of the kitchen where the end of the new steel beam will end. (Think of it as a horizontal backwards "C" shape in plan view routing around the end of the beam). Please let me know if what I'm proposing looks correct, and also where it would be best to tie in the vent. (Or do I even need the vent given how short the trap arm will be?)
