I love doing doing diy projects, and I've been building a custom carport for a bit now, had it done, was gonna do so little things to improve it, but had a crazy storm the other night and one of the 2 sections collapsed, do you have any tips or knowledge that may help out?
@CottoDIY3 жыл бұрын
I would use pressure treated wood, exterior lag structural screws, and galvanized hurricane straps. All these can be found at Home Depot or Lowe’s. If you don’t use exterior structural screws, it might hold for a while but will eventually rust and snap. Same with non treated wood, it will weather and become weak. The biggest tip might be the hurricane straps. This should reduce twisting. Also, what I don’t have on my carport are angle brackets. This might also reduce twisting. Hope this helps.

That would be no surprise! The price for lumber has skyrocketed!

One year later is it still holding up? Looks not so great for longevity

Looks can be deceiving. Still standing strong. Ask again in a few years and I’ll let you know how it’s doing.

@@ablaze3717 oh, the tarp is a no go. Go with metal or plastic if you can. The tarp ripped because of water buildup and then it tore up in a hurricane.

@@CottoDIY that’s what I figured. Anytime I used tarp it was temporary cuz the water build up. But I’m gonna go with metal I can get from work for the roof…. I’ve built 3-4 quick carports and additions to sheds but they ALWAYS have roof issues. Ive used tar Paper twice over sheeting and then used rolled roofing for the last two. Thanks for the input mate
