Just had a thought, what exactly should I be asking them? Save's me phoning them twice after posting back here later.

Just spoke to one of the workmen who carried out the work on my loft flooring. He says they put the joists over the main supporting "kingpin" beam. Hope this helps. Means nothing to me.
Happy new year everyone. Thanks for all the help so far. Any other suggestions now?

If i'm not mistaking they mean tie beam which the king post sits on, if thats the case what is the other end sitting on.
As markie has mentioned, the kingpost normally resting on the beam and the kingpin is the pin like mortice and tenon in the beam of the king post.
The only real way of knowing is a photo or lift one of the floorboard to check because I wouldn't take anybody word for it.
