Need some input on framing this 24x26 deck ,have concrete poured on 8 foot centers ,is 2x6 pressure treat strong enough to span 8 feet or do i need to go 2x8 ?and in the center where no overhang ,do i need a board below the deck to hold the joists up in the center area ,or can i just notch the beams and frame in between them ? ,i was thinking 4x6 for more strength if seam every 8 feet ,i was going to add a board around the outer edge because of overhang to set the floor framing on ,but wondering if the center is really needed like that ? i have a ledger board 2x8 attached to the house already to start off of .
