I am designing/building an 18' wide frame with a staircase that ends at the top of the 2nd floor about 14" from a centered Summer beam, perpendicular to the staircase. I know the look might be a bit funny on the 1st floor but would there be any negative impact to moving the Summer 14" or so closer to the outer bay wall? (so one side of the bay has ~9.5' joists and the other has 7.5' approximately)
Thanks!
