Hi,
I'm not sure if it is possible for your situation, but I have done this
with the ends of the joists shaped to fit into either side of the "I"
of the beam - and before anyone says anything - it was approved by the
structural engineer and BCO - worked a treat. Difficult do do unless
you are completely removing the ceilings in both rooms and the dwangs
between the joists but an option none the less.
Alan.
