Re: Yurt Loft
Set your Yurt on a two-foot 'pony-wall'. You could make the walls with 2x6 'studs' to make the process a bit easier. This should give you a bit more height to put in a loft.
With lofts you can either hang the ceiling joists from rafters (not recommended) or attached them to the vertical supports (studs). If your Yurt didn't come with walls studs - DO NOT TRY A LOFT OF ANY KIND. You will need some type of center support to bear the weight of the loft. Depending on the weight you need the loft to carry, you might need a footer for the center support.
We have put lofts in 24' and 30'. I am not aware of lots in 20' or 16' Yurts.
Good Luck
