I think everyone should read this again (I missed it as well) and get off the subject if "TGI" is a ridgid as traditional joists or not. his set up is a overkill of strenght and a perfect location for a tank.. there will be no bounce. it is resting directly on a enginered "BEEM" on the loadbearing wall. he had "EXTRA" TGI's throwen in.
