I'm building a treehouse.
I don't want to set the joists on the beams.
Can I sister a 2"x4" to the beam and set the 2"x8" joists on that?
The beams are sistered 2"x8" that meet code for span.
The beams aren't parallel, therefore I would have to order skewable joist hangers or have a local metal shop make them.
Sistering the 2"x4" is info that I have not been able to find online.
Thanks for any replys.
