Look like part number 12103 and not 12098? Yours didn’t have the bolts to adjust width? Couldn’t you fill the tube with epoxy in areas where wind is a concern. I know you loose adjustability. The company would be smart to thread the base then use the nut to lock into to position creating an actual connection to the ground. Nice idea but don’t know how it meets code

Three important mistakes: 1. The flashing where it meets up at the butt joint on the ledger needs to be caulked. Water will penetrate at the butt joint and eventually rot out. 2. He tore the tar paper near the downspout. That should have been repaired. 3 Finally and most critically, the concrete patio is probably no more than than 3-1/2 “ thick. My jurisdiction would have required the patio cut out and a footing installed.

This video series (see all 3) is THE authoritative source of expert information that made my deck build possible!!! There is so much noise and misinformation on KZfaq, half-baked, and downright dangerous "expert" advice on deck building techniques. Shannon's is the real deal. Of course, you will have to supplement with other videos to adapt to your own deck building situation, but these 3 videos from Shannon have all the core knowledge you need to DIY, even if you are a complete novice like I was.

I like everything you do except for the lack of pre-drilling. I feel, in a situation such as this, even though a manufacturer may say it's not necessary, the importance of mitigating stress within the board outweighs the convenience and speed of driving them straight in with no pilot hole, especially in drier dimensional lumber. As you're well aware, lumber loses much of it's strength as soon as it develops a crack or split. As for the flashing, perhaps a bead of construction adhesive on the top edge of the ledger board would be effective to hold the flashing in place so the main sections don't move and the splice doesn't slide laterally from its location. Great job with your explanations; I really appreciate your ability to convey key information to the layman - a true teacher.

Hate to be one of those people but those joist hangers are designed to have longer screws/nails in the 4 diagonal holes. That is so the screw/nail penetrates the joist as well as the framing member the joist is being hung on, in this case the ledger board.

Great video! One thing, joist hangers need longer screws or nails in the angled holes! 2-1/2" minimum according to Simpson strong tie! Most common mistake everywhere! Almost all pros make this mistake!

There are two different types (and 2 different trains of thought), one bracket accommodates angled screws, the other screws in at 90.

A minor correction. Those aren't lag bolts. They're lag screws. I mention this because if you ask for lag bolts at your home supply you'll end up with the wrong fasteners and they will probably ask you if you want nuts for the bolts.

They are lag bolts for sure. The hardware that came with my lumber has a box of 5/8" lag bolts for the ledger.

Correct they're screws, and you need some time out doing something other than scrutinizing deck fasteners

You take all the extra care that separates quality workmanship from average. And I appreciate all the details and tips that you remember to mention. A lot of instructionals take for granted that everyone knows these things. Great work and awesome video! Thank you!
