My basement uses engineered i-beams for the floor joists. Because the bottom of the joists are almost 9' off the floor, I'd like to mount a pull up bar and maybe a DIY TRK-type webbing setup. How do I do this correctly, so I'm not weakening the joists?
I'm thinking I'll have to use 1" fillers on either side of the i-beam web to fill in the gap and then use 2x6+ on either side of those to be able to have enough mass to bolt things into?
I'm also surprised there's no home gym thread
