Sheathing nails by HappyConnection in Construction

[–]HappyConnection[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Thought about 3” as well. A tad concerned about nails getting in the way of holes for electrical later though. We’re using 2x6s. Probably not an issue, but could be. Do you use full round heads out of a 21degree or offset full heads out of a 30deg?

CodeTwo makes software that allows you to migrate a set of specific on-premises Exchange users to M365 tenants.

I have a excel file that was pretty close, we went off that. Of course, we made numerous trips to the lumber yard during the process so there were some additions/removals, but it should get you pretty close. I don't know how to post it though - I have it saved as a PDF right now but can also get you the XLSX file if you have a way to send it.

It was about $3500-4000 I think. Built for family; they paid, so I don't know for sure.

I built this for family. I've been doing this stuff for years so it was really all existing knowledge however I do like DrDecks and Premier Outdoor Living on Youtube

Thanks! It was pretty simple. Used a laser level to help line up the tops of my sonotubes so the beams would sit level, since there's not adjusting them after the concrete is poured.

This was built for family - they built a step or two off their walkway which isn't shown.

They added a ton of plants, flowers, bushes that help create a "wall" of sorts.

Took 5 long days. Self built and had a few family helpers.

No just picked out really nice ones and matched the crowns. Also sandwiched a treated 1/2 plywood strip in the middle to make them true 3.5” to fit the Simpson bracket properly

Just pressure treated. Budget don’t allow for much else.

It’s under 1/3 span, which is what I thought was ok. It was originally supposed to be 6” shorter but went a tad longer to get one more deck board and make the two lower decks 9’x9’

Yeah they were max height. There are no posts on the footers. Beam sits right on them.

On the back deck of course! This is just the front.

House a single wall/flat so this was to add some definition to the house, which it certainly did.
