    Hot tub design weight

    I have a client who wants to have a hot tub on their deck and am unsure about what design weight to use. I have been told that a 5x5 spa with water and people would be about 5000lb giving it a 200psf load. Does this seem right to you? Not enough? Too much?

    Cantilevered Deck

    I know that the standard practice is to embed the cantilevered joist into the floor system twice the length of the cantilever. However, I have a client who wants to go out further and I was wondering if anyone knew how I could do this. Thanks in advance.
