    Urgent advice needed - footers were poured today

    In California when the mix is over 2500 psi for structural reasons there is a deputy inspection required and a break test as well. It sounds like that is not the case where you are?

    Alternatives to embedded concrete anchors

    We usually use epoxy in these situations. Epoxy bolts typically require a deputy inspection. I don't think wedge anchors do. Check with your inspector to confirm.

    2x4 Ceiling joists

    Don't leave the sistering to screws. It needs to be nailed together. The shear value of a nail is much greater than a screw. Don't hand nail it you will vibrate the joist and crack the plaster. Rent or borrow a gun nailer and shoot it together.

    J-Bolts or Hilti?

    Shot pins are fine for non bearing, non sheared interior walls. Any bearing or sheared wall should have bolts. They really don't add much work at all.
