Our master bath is on the second floor. The area the tub & Walk In Shower will be in ia a span of about 8 x9 ft. THe studs inbetween are 2x8s and also has to 1ft by 6in beams holding the area up. The tub will sit around 8 to 12 in away from the wall with a shelf all the way around.

I would like opinions on whether you feel the floor needs to be fortified any more then it is. Also below where the tub will be is our front door. (Has a huge header)
