Re: two level covered deck/porch

Re: two level covered deck/porch
Picture 2 Bob, and it sure looks like it. The butt joint of the rim joist is opened up quite a bit at the top.
Surprised this whole thing has not come down yet.

Quote:
Even the ones that are bearing right over a 4x4 failed since the metal foot on the posts is larger than the top of the 4x4. This caused the post to lean over and sink into the decking next to the 4x4 posts as shown in picture 3.

Re: two level covered deck/porch
The house has been vacant for a few years I think. Not many people realize the affects of stacking loads like this design has.
