According to who?

Most manufacturers allow their joist hangers to be used one size up..... a 2x4 hanger is adequate for a 2x6; a 2x6 adequate for a 2x8.....etc.

Did you annotate the name of the hanger and check its load rating or are you just calling it out because it doesn't look right for your taste?

Is there a 12 person hot tub up there?

I did not write up the hanger. But I did write there was NO flashing at the ledger board.

Marcel,

This particular deck was added onto an existing deck and was literally pulling away from its connection...
