Can't really tell from the photos what all is going on there -

What is carrying the joists ? And how do they interact with it, just friction ?

Is there anything more than the decking and its nails likely to resist the pull ?

Are there suitable anchor points on the opposite side of the barn ?

What do you have for pullers ?
