    Concrete Footers for Floor Jacks
    I have two sagging joists under the refrigerator in our kitchen and am having to place a floor jack in to lever a sagging joist in our home. There is a crawl space under it and am told I need to pour a concrete footer to support the jack. How big should the footer be?

    Tks.

    It depends on the load size that it will support, but most likely 3' x 3' x 12"
