Can you please make a video and show us how you mounted those 4x4 or 6x6 posts on top of the deck even if it’s a different deck how did you secure it please show me I’m wanting to know

What size LVL ridge beam and non treated dimensional lumber end beams did you use? Looks like 2x12? Thank you making these videos.

@thebedfords Жыл бұрын

The LVL was a double 1 3/4” x 14”. The end beams were either 2x10 or 2x12. I don’t remember exactly.

Question: those 6x6 corner posts that hold up the roof. I see that on top of those 6x6 posts you placed those beams. I see that you used a pair of Simpson LPC post caps to secure the beams to the 6x6 post. However, for the OTHER beam that you also placed on top of the 6x6 corner post (i.e. 2 beams sharing one 6x6 post), I can't see how you connected that second beam to the beam. To say it another way, I'm referring to that beam that runs parallel to the house. It sits on 6x6 posts shared by other beams running perpendicular. I'd like to know how you secured the beam that runs parallel to the house, to the post.

I could be mistaken, but what I think you are referring to is the timber beam we installed in the next video (Part 4)? Full clarity, I don’t remember exactly how we attached everything, because it was several years ago. I do know everything passed inspection.

@@thebedfords Yes, I believe that's it, in the next video (part 4) I first see it appear in that video at 2:58. I'm currently trying to design my own patio roof structure and am having trouble finding full details on how to connect that beam to the post. If you happen to recall, that would be great. either way, thanks for replying

@@thinkoutsidethecontainer because it was an exposed timber beam, I think we just screwed through the end of the 2x beam coming off the house, into the end of the timber beam. But we’ve done a more traditional 2x beam all the way around on others, and we just overlap them in a way that allowed us to have all 4 members of the beams land on the post, and used a bracket which we may have modified slightly (not sure) to properly fasten everything.

How are the roof posts attched after the fact? Were there footings made in part 1 or were they attched directly to the top? Can't wait to see the final project.

@thebedfords 3 жыл бұрын

So the footings for the deck were indeed shown in part 1. From the ground up it was poured concrete footings, on top of which were sitting 6x6 posts holding up two girders made of double 2x12s. The two girders are what hold up the deck joists. So the 6x6 posts that hold up the roof assembly--some are attached with brackets to the deck framing, and the center post holding up the ridge beam for the roof, actually fit down inside the deck framing system and bolted to that. All connections either meet or exceed the required building code. I haven't actually filmed the final part yet, so when I do, I'm gonna try to actually show and talk about some of the questions that have been asked on these videos. Hope all that made sense!

Me too. I wish to see how to attach the post for roof to the floor o decking

@davidsaviano9012 Жыл бұрын

Looks like your waterproofing solution between the joists (in the joist bays) precludes you blocking those joists properly. Won't that lead to joist bending or twisting over time?

@thebedfords Жыл бұрын

It's probably less effective than fully blocking, but the joists are fastened to the girder running down the middle of the deck, not just sitting on it.

I love this video series. Porch looks great. Did you add any support in the wall below the pockets for the lower roof beams? Or did there happen to be studs there to rest them on?

@thebedfords 8 ай бұрын

There were already enough studs in those locations to carry the load.

I'm getting ready to replace my deck and I'm going to put a slant roof on it and I can't find any information on if I should run my post from the footings all the way up to support the roof or build the deck and then put post on top of the deck and how to secure them correctly

Gotta talk to your local building department about stuff like that
