3. Solid 8x8 Pine Post and Beam question - Contractor Talk

   www.contractortalk.com/threads/solid-8x8-pine-post-and-beam-question.456906

   The beam will sit squarely on each post with about 4-5 inch overhang on each post. I don't want to do any mortise and tenon or anything like that. Instead, I want to drill through the top of the beam down vertically into each post and attach with 3/4 x 10 inch lag bolts ( the beams will be a counter bored to recess the bolts).

   The first time I built a deck here the county gave me a drawing of a typ footing that they wanted to see. 32" hole 12" dia. I think 10" of concrete then the post foot and post. Backfill with pea gravel. I dig the holes to 14 or 16" dia and the footing ia about 12 to 14" thick (2 bags of concrete).

   I'm having a wicked bear of a time finding Simpson 8x8 Post Bases. None of my local suppliers, lumber or fastener, carry that size. Nor could they tell me yesterday what it would cost to order them. Amazon has them for $65 to $95. Can anyone tell me roughly what they should cost retail?

Any post more than 8 feet long we use 4x6 or 6x6. 4x4's are subject to some serious bending as they dry. On my own deck, I had to replace a 6x6 after a year, when it bowed almost 1 1/2 inches.

I agree with MAC, for the work involved to dink around and support the deck and then try to slice a few inches off the bottom of the posts and install brackets, I think it would be much faster and simpler to install a couple new posts.

10. Span tables for 8"x12"x24' western red cedar for this pergola

    www.contractortalk.com/threads/span-tables-for-8-x12-x24-western-red-cedar-for...

    The 16' opening bent that we did was 10"x10" douglas fir and most of the barn beams were 8x8, 10x10 and even 12x12 oak with spans rarely exceeding 16'.... all depends on loading though. Looks like a really fun project, hopefully it goes ahead!

    I would use a pressure treated beam. Termites don't like eating pressure treated wood.
