starting at 1:28 , he said timber screw, and showed the incorrect picture on upper right in the video, which is displaying SDWS Framing Screw of 3". Timber and Framing screws are different, so which one did he drilled in the Rim Joist to the ledger board??

Hello @adinshazia, thank you for your question! He used a framing screw in the video. The main difference between timber screws and framing screws are that the timber screws have a larger head and are often used in heavy-duty construction. Using either one would be okay as long as you have confirmed this with your local code official just in case. Kindly, - Trex Customer Care Team

@paulodonnell753 Ай бұрын
Just curious… would it be possible to construct these connections using joinery instead of hurricane ties etc? Honest question (also: I would not try so it is an honest, curious and hypothetical question)
@paulodonnell753 Ай бұрын
Looks great. The one thing I’m not sold on is the three inch membrane placed over the steel ledger flashing - the one at 26:25. Seems like over time water could get behind that. And if it does get behind it, it also gets behind the ledger. I would think that that membrane covering the steel flashing would need to start underneath the existing membrane - e.g., starting from behind, say, where the siding ends and behind whatever membrane is behind/undernwath it. Am I missing something?
@randal3122 Ай бұрын
you are missing the siding. the siding wont allow water to get behind the top of that flashing. the flashing is there just ro makw the water flow from the bottom of the siding and over the ledger

Been building decks for over 50 years and this makes no sense, plus it means more cutting of the decking . There is a much simpler and faster way.

Kit handrails are garbage the allow water to get inside and oxidize the aluminum and fall apart. Kit railing is garbage i as a railing fabricator replace 10 deck railing a year with custom welded handrails that last 30 years

You are saying to leave space between fascia boards. But once screwed them to rim joist how would they expand and contract? Will screws break or move later?

Good afternoon, Thank you for reaching out. No reason. The post can be positioned either way as the direction is not structural. That would just be a personal preference.

What would the blocking / support look like for the post in the corner off the ledger there with the hangers. Do you treat it like a mid band joist post? In which case do you need to put a 2xN block between it and the hangers/ledger (while maintaining the < 4” gap between the post and house wall)?

Good afternoon, Thank you for reaching out. We did what was explained below and treated it as a line post. Installing guardrail posts are essential in creating a safe and functional outdoor space. Learn more about guardrail post installation and spacing with Trex® Academy's step-by-step video instructions. To learn more about deck guardrail posts, installation, and the deck building process, visit: cur.lt/jxneurigx and start building your dream deck We did not put a 2x against the ledger but one in front of the double flat 2x blocks.

Why 6 in below door ?
@TheTrexCo 3 ай бұрын
Hi there, thank you for reaching out. The ledger board is installed in this instance as a preference by the homeowner. This deck is in an area that does get a descent amount of snow. By installing the deck 6” below the door the snow can build up a few inches without being at the door. If the deck was at the door level and the snow built up it could seep into the door and possibly damage the hardwood flooring. This way the snow is below the door level and when the door is open the snow doesn’t fall into the house. This is just a preference and not a code item. Note- the code does state that the step from the door threshold to the deck can not be more than 7 ¾”. ~Trex Customer Care Team
