of the 2 x 2 you have cut.

Place the 2 x 2 against the bottom of the floor & against the floor joist
(support) on the side. Place a screw from the bottom of the 2 x 2 into the
floor boards a minimum of every 12 inches if they run parallel or 2 screws
to each floor board if they run perpendicular.
Have someone stand on the floor above the 2 x 2 to hold it down & screw
through the side of the 2 x 2 into the floor joist.
You will have better results if you pre-drill the screw holes in the 2 x 2
before gluing.
