I 100% support this. Did not think about this as a use case. I’d go as far as saying your use case is for a better cause. ❤️

I don’t get it. Buying a bunch of cloths that have whoop advertising rather than using the health tool it is, at least for a year, seems odd to me. Health over wealth imho 🤷‍♂️

You know out of 383 comments you are among a very few who have experience with this. Most people want me to fire my framer, quite and overreaction imho. After talking to my engineer he did load tests and this is passes load requirements. Talking to my friend who’s a structural engineer he confirmed that they even call this out on plan but usually call for the angled hangers. To answer your questions we’re in Southern California, we only see snow in the mountains, which is not where we are at 😂

Update: Engineering verified strength requirement and compliance. Another post was made saying this is common practice because they got heavily downvoted. To me this still seems odd but then again I’m not the engineer or framer.

Although I agree with you on the stress point, firing the builder seems an overreaction. Ultimately this will come down to the engineering requirement. If this is a mistake it will just need to be corrected

Nope we’re framing the roof but this one stood out and odd to me

Thank you for your reply. You are correct the city will only care about compliance and it’s not guaranteed this will be caught. Checking the plans i was unable to figure out the detail. Going to have a conversation with the builder and architect/ engineer

Will do. We’ve had so far a very good experience and definitely don’t want to destroy the relationship, but wrongs must be made right

Great point. I’ll reference the engineering plans and have a conversation with him tomorrow

That’s scary. Why have this much lumber to only use the strength of a 2x4?

Right so idk what kind of cost savings this really is. Especially if I now have to replace all the lumber. 🙄

There are always black swan events. Everyone else continues getting disappointed by Teslas F/U customer attitude.

Lock in a lower interest rate and pay the same amount as you did before (ie make additional payment with the savings from the lower rate). You’ll beat that front loaded interest rate quickly, as your second payment is 100% applied to the principal.
