i would suggest laying stringers on brick supports and properly attached to footing or wall as may be your case.
look around and grab plywood slip sheets (3/4 is best) and stagger seams with 2 layers and glue between. i use pl2000 general purpose construction adheasive.
this type of setup depending on support and stringers can support a full size truck and more. use at least 2x12 on 16 center to support vehicles. just random yard equipment can use 2x6 on 24 or 32 center.
adding something like this can add alot of structural strength. also adding supports and bracing may allow you to rebuild a board at a time eliminating permits and other hasssles as most areas consider that upkeep not new structure. also think of it this way... it will allow expansion a wall at a time without govenment involvement. Keep expansion under 2 feet each time or they cancall it remodeling and still make you pull permits.
