The main deck is less than 30"off the ground. It is 15'deep by 24'wide where it attached to the house. <br /> The outer end of the deck is 20'wide,with a 4'X5' staircase placed on a 90 degree angle. The deck is <br /> built with 2X10, 16oc joists,spanning 13.5'to the beam with a 1.5'cantilever.The joists are supported <br /> by a tripled 2X10 beam. The main beam sits on three,8"flared to 16"-18"footings. The three main <br /> footings are spaced 9'oc. There is a fourth footing which supports the doubled 2X10 beam for the stair <br /> case (see attached plans). The main beam sits flat on two of the three footings and on the third, a six <br /> inch high, 6X6 pinned post on the footing(as shown above). The deck is fastened to the concrete <br /> foundation with 3/8 galv lag-screw/lag shield anchors,with rows of two lags spaced not more than 20". <br /> The joists are fastened to the ledger using appropriate sized 2X10 hangers. The main deck is less than <br /> 30"from the ground. Although not required, a railing has been included on the front(see attached <br /> photos). <br /> The staircase is 5'wide X 4'long. It is built with 4 stringers and a 2X12 skirt. The rise is 7%".The run is <br /> 12.6".The railing will need a hand rail attached. <br /> The back door walk-out has not been built. The deck is about 12" off the ground. This deck sits in a <br /> corner location with house foundation on two sides. The current deck is 6'X8'and has a ledger attached <br /> to the foundation on two sides. The foundation ledger(s)supports three corners of the square,and one <br /> poured footing is supporting the fourth corner. I would like to use the same design only expand the <br /> length of this deck to 10'X8', requiring a new footing. However,this is dependent on the utility locate, <br /> for the underground electric service enters in this area. in the event the utility prevents enlarging the <br /> deck, I would like to use the existing footing. The new deck will be of 2X8 construction,with a double <br /> 2X8 rim. <br /> if you have any questions or concerns, I can be reached at 952-826-0490. <br /> Thank you for taking the time to review the plans. <br /> �v <br /> im Olson <br />
