Stupid? yeah, In my area, it would not meet code!
At minimum, (1) pipe bollard at each unit, minimum of 24" -30" seperation, depending on side of unit and Manuf's spec's.

Makes me wonder what "whoever" must have been thinking, when adding wood shims under the pads, sitting on the driveway. G/C or HVAC Contr. Tech.?
Stupid? yeah, Rotting from day one? you bet, No Code violation though!

You know, I think we all assume it takes professionals to build a house. Little things like this example is what drives me crazy, and makes me second guess the entire job. You just have too, when you see stuff like we do.
Fair?, probably not.

I try to work from knowledge and experience, and note and report with common sense. It's kept me out of trouble so far.

Excellent statement Greg; the only thing that I would have stated different is Common sense, knowledge, Experience

We never stop learning, till we retire!

As we discussed yesterday, once you get out of it on a daily basis, things tend to "slip away".

I like discussing things like this on the BB. It makes you think and helps make things stick around a little longer! I have trouble keeping all the math in my head these days.
