Best Answer

The ceiling structure of the garage needs to have the capacity to hold the weight and the system that will secure the hoist. Unfortunately this is dependant on some mathematical calculations that take into account the span of the joists, beam deflection, modulus of elasticity, live/dead load, weight to be lifted, speed of the hoist and other things. Once the calculations are done to determine what strength is needed in the ceiling, the actual project will probably be very simple.
