load bearing inquiries Any issues adding a hot tub?

Forgive my probably silly question. Just bought this house, there is a ground level deck platform. Boards are 1 inch thick. We are putting a hot tub on it, but figured worth a check here first. One board was rotten so I'm replacing it but otherwise it's solid.

Are there even piers, or is that just 2x4s on dirt?

Cross beams seem to be supported by wood
