Might I suggest that after your insulation is installed in your floor system that you add a barrier if 1/4 inch builder's mesh to the bottom of your floor joists to keep vermin and other creatures from taking up residence in your floor system. ou guys make an amazing team, so impressive!

To an old builder, your project looks great. HOWEVER, I learned the hard way to pay come extra money and use Simpson tie-downs and joist hangers. I never used nails to tie something together - I used coated screws. They are a lot more expensive than nails or air-nails. But, they don't squeak on floors and the don't pull out. Your comment on Milwaukee is right-on.

Just wanted to mention (as a framer), you always want to block between joists at the load bearing points--where they sit on each beam...especially since yours are spliced there. Otherwise, everything looking good. You might try using your drill for the lag and timber screws instead of the impact...much quicker and quieter. LOL
