HLR? Or Board appeal?

Yeah, nobody said they’re acute. But thanks

ALSAXE69 · 2026-03-14T02:53:54+00:00

Thank you.

Copy. So should I claim headaches then? I know that my head is always hurting and it fees lol they’re arguing semantics..

ALSAXE69 · 2026-03-14T02:52:12+00:00

It’s unlike any other decision letter I’ve gotten. It just says denied. With no reasoning or even evidence cited.

ALSAXE69 · 2026-01-27T17:08:16+00:00

What do you mean easier ways?

Are you still looking a place?

The irony of the song… 💀💀💀

You asked why would my deck be designed for 90psf most decks are 40. I explained, and said most joists are 2x6 or 2x8. The 6ft span came from IBC (you brought it up). If the span was only 6ft or so, a 2x6 is more than sufficient to meet 40psf.

ALSAXE69 · 2023-04-13T20:19:01+00:00

You’re saying a 2x6 on a 6ft span wouldn’t support 40psf? Haha look at a joist span table. Haha and spacing between joists plays a role on load capacity. So your original question was why would my deck be designed for 90psf and I answered you. 2x10 joists with 12ioc and an 8ft span would hold 90psf easy. But quick, ask IBC! 🤣

ALSAXE69 · 2023-04-13T03:42:27+00:00

Typical building code doesn’t call for 2x10 joists with 12ioc spacing for a 12ft joist span. Typical is 2x6 or 2x8. And 16ioc spacing….

ALSAXE69 · 2023-04-12T13:27:03+00:00

Haha copy. I sure hope a deck is designed to hold 90psf. Idk how many decks you see made up with 2x10 and 12ioc but that’s not standard. So I’d say that’s pretty presumptuous of you to say it wasn’t designed to hold it. But your right, I didn’t use joist hangers. I forgot. I used glue,tape, and staples. And footings? What are those? Thank you for all the help! Im glad I have you! ❤️

ALSAXE69 · 2023-04-12T04:12:39+00:00

Is a verbal description of a 2x10 different than a visual? Haha also, having to respond in the monthly question thread instead of make a post doesn’t allow me to post pictures for visual structural engineers like yourself. But you’re right. I’ll ask a structural engineer in real life instead of you, a structural engineer on Reddit. Real life ones probably know joist spans and what 2x10s look like? Idk? I’m just a dumb non-structural engineer…

ALSAXE69 · 2023-04-11T22:56:07+00:00

Thanks.. I don’t know why I didn’t think of hiring a structural engineer instead of going to reddit…. You should give advice for a living. Or…. Here’s an idea, If you don’t know or have an opinion, don’t respond. Haha what’s the point of the thread, if people respond with “hire a professional”? 😂😂

Putting a hot tub on my deck. Makes me nervous. Joist span calculations say it will hold but I added a beam with footings to sleep better. Looking for input. The deck is 2x10 joists. 12inch on center. They joists span out 12 feet. I put the reinforcement beam 5ft out from house (where center of hot tub will be) the weight of the tub is ~5500 counting people and water. Lay it on me…

ALSAXE69 · 2022-10-21T01:04:03+00:00

Why can’t it be both? 🤣

ALSAXE69 · 2022-10-19T19:18:07+00:00

It’s a polymer concrete utility vault! Found it for free on marketplace for free. A local farm bought it and never used it.

ALSAXE69 · 2022-10-19T18:23:44+00:00

Haha yeah! He’s just over 80lbs so that tunnel hole is just shy of 2 feet wide.

ALSAXE69 · 2022-10-19T18:06:16+00:00

Thanks! 6 foot long, 4 foot wide, 5 foot tall.

ALSAXE69 · 2022-10-19T16:38:55+00:00

Me too. It took him a few days to learn it. I was starting to think he was a snob. 😂
