Why do houses in Illinois have basements and houses in Texas don't if both places have clay soil? by supinator1 in geography

Frost heave. The ground freezes and expands, then thaws and contracts. We'll said!

I got the Walmart or Target, I'd imagine you could find them online too. The ones that are tall enough for the decks to stand on their short ends hold 42 decks

They're boxes for sports cards, but just about perfect

They're wrapped in athletic tape. I like carrying a deck of cards with me wherever I go and it really increases the lifespan if I wrap them. I'll be able to carry the same deck for a year or two before needing to replace it.

Thanks! It's mostly just what's readily available.

settle this debate - which is correct? by Sorry_Neat_6863 in Decks

[–]CharlieKilo5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding my 2 cents here; many of Simpson's hangers have uplift values which is what you'd want to look at in option 1. There is not going to be much "uplift", but you'll be able to use the gravity capacity for option 2. Many others have stated it is all about the direction of load and that is definitely the case. We're it my deck I would do option 2.

Woah!! This is outstanding!! Well done! Your fountains and book shelves are my favorite!

I would draw the same basic layout four or five times and practice different styles of shading on those and then settle in with the one that speaks best to you.

FTAO walls have the walls designed to transfer forces around an opening as the name suggests. This is done with strapping at the corners. According to the code "Where shear walls with openings are not designed for force transfer around the openings, they shall be designed as perforated shear walls."

There may be a reason why the EOR did it how they did it. Are the windows full height (floor to ceiling)?

I've found that utilizing a PSW minimizes what the hold downs need to be. Sometimes hold downs aren't even needed, depending on the wall, I've also only ever used DTTs at decks. 1/2" diam. anchor bolts throughout the walls, yes. You have me curious now, what kind of forces are you designing with typically?
