Well, as usual you've made a comment which has caused me to do more digging. (It's good for me!)
Over the concrete, the EW joists are propped up with metal feet. The feet are not only screwed to the wood, they are screwed into the concrete. Here are two different EW joists. The camera is pointed toward the house in both pictures.
In the picture below, the joist terminates at the East side of the pool.
Also, I believe that those EW joists which go all the way to the house, in other words, do not terminate into the side of the pool, were cut to rest on the concrete.
It's really the first bit of carpentry that I've seen which I really admire. Near the skimmer below, the there's an EW joist just to the left of a light grey line.
I took a picture holding the camera over the skimmer lid aiming toward the house, and the joist is cut to rest on the ground, plus it has a metal bracket screwed into it, which is also screwed into the concrete.
The joist you see on the left in the picture also rests on the ground, and makes the west wall of a box that goes around the skimmer.
With this new information would you now think that the "One 2 joist beam" design with I drew above would be adequate?
