Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Hello and thank you for your time whoever you are out there. I am buying a new home and the woman and I want to put a home gym and free weights up in the second floor "Great Room". The home gym wieghs about 600 pounds, the free wieghts wiegh 900 pounds then add the treadmill and some other equipment which wieghs about 500 more pounds and you have a total of 2000 pounds not includind two or three people using the equipment. The room size is 25X20 and is over a garage if that matters, I am trying to find out the size of the floor joists now
