Default Re: I see several issues with this Deck

blocking.... would have been required here to block at intervals, blocking over beams woulda been nice! Joists blocked and blocks nailed to beam or A35's

we use lateral bracing here as well (knee or other)

Looks like YellaWood to me.

I can't believe there is not a single rail post on that rail system. Too funny!! Those joists should be either toe nailed or strapped to the beams.
