kurt Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 Header? Except there's no apparent place to take it to at the other side, and the accessible joist isn't doubled....
mjr6550 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 It looks like the other side is the band, or rim joist. Could probably notch a header to clear the pipe at the FW. For a single joist you can usually get away without doubling the joist (especially if the cutout piece is relatively close to an end), although doubling would be better.
John Kogel Posted June 10, 2015 Author Report Posted June 10, 2015 Thanks, I said 'header' then thought that sounded wrong. Yes they can rest on a sill plate on top of the foundation wall.
kurt Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 I wouldn't bother doubling anything either, never seems to do anything.
