How to reinforce joists for finished room weight?

I do not have any second story finished room but I have many shelves. What i have is a partial wall between the double garage and the single garage. It runs from the concrete garage floor to the rafters. It does not affect the space between the double and the single garages. It supports the weight on the shelves. For your purpose you need a building contractor and building licenses from your City. If your bonus room does not meet building standards and your entire house burns down, your insurance will be null and void. Spend the money and get this done right. You may be a great handyman but that just doesn't cut it. Do this right and you will add value to your house. Do it own your own and you will never be able to sell your house. It's your call.
