I am doing a residential project where there is an existing 2 story house and they are adding a new front balcony.
The existing floor joists cantilever 3.5ft and support the wall (roof) above.
Since this isn't the best condition I am adding a steel beam under the wall above so that I can cantilever new deck joists out for the new balcony. I am extending the new deck joists 7ft back into the existing floor framing and sistering them to the existing floor joists.
I am having problems correctly analyzing the reactions to the new steel beam.
Would the rxn at the new stl beam just be the entire fj/dj span with 3 simply supported rxns?
Partial framing plan attached
Thanks
