I would just put a board floor in laying the boards diagonal. Then if you want to finish the floor later on or when ever just get the 1/4 inch plywood and fasten it on top of the boards and then you will never have a loose or sagging joint.

The way the house is constructed I can't get a 4x8 sheet into the attic. I can
do a 4x4 and with some effort a 2x8, but none of those are t&g.

Any options out there besides using some kind of Simpson Tie in place of the
t&g edge support?

thanks,
