I just got finished reinforcing my floor before filling my tank to leak test it.
The floor joists are 2x6, 16 OC.
The back of the tank backs up to a load bearing stem wall.
I added a 7 foot 4x6 beam which are supported by 3 floor jacks on concrete piers which I dug down a foot and poured concrete. The pre fab piers were placed on top of the 1 foot deep footing.
This 4x6 beam is running along underneath the front of the tank.
Tank is 72x28x30
Is this sufficient?
