Depends on the load rating of the floor as your water would be about 500 pounds and then the weight of the tank. think the numbers you are looking for are a min. uniform design load of 40 lbs/sq ft with a min. 200-pound concentrated load on a one-inch diameter disc. (HUD Code Sec. 3280.305) Before the mobile-hating guy starts his whining, that is also the same design criteria I design for in modular and stick frame home construction. I believe that you will be ok without adding any additional support below your floor. The water in your tank will weigh about 480 lbs, or about the the weight of a well-stocked side-by-side refrigerator. You can hedge the numbers by placing the tank on a wood base or platform that spreads the weight over an area wider than the four points where the tank legs typically sit.

Is the attic the first floor or 2nd floor?

If you are talking about a house, the attic would be on the third floor as you have a ground floor (first floor), then a second floor (upstairs) and then a third floor (the attic), However if it was a bungalow, it would be on the second floor because bungalow's don't have an upstairs.

How do you make an upstairs on the sims 3?

Go to Build Mode, then find the little icons with house images on them. There will be two of these buttons, one on top of the other. The top one will lead you to the floor above and the bottom one will lead you back down to the main floor or to the basement if you have one. Anyway, click on the top house image and it will bring you to the top floor. First, get rid of the roof for the moment so you can place things upstairs, then build rooms and walls upstairs and add flooring and wallpaper. Then, you can rebuild the roof and you will have an upstairs. Hope that helped. :/
