Thanks for the reply. I can see how the water could be an issue. What if
I attached the joists to the concrete with angle brackets? Would this
keep the water off the wood and allow for it to flow out naturally? It
is underneath a roof and generally doesnt get much water as is, but
better safe than sorry. Cheers


The roof is an advantage but moisture still plays a role.

The bracket will work providing it keeps the wood off the concrete.
Something like this is the idea...
