How do you know which fasteners are able to support the main weignt bearing joists? Would you be able to build a safe second floor on top of those joists? Having just watched some house building videos, I'm now scared of my own house just because it seems to depend on screws and weight to stay upright lol

Thanks for the video. ❤❤❤We added a tv to our gazebo and love how fun it is to watch tv outside and with friends outdoors. We used the ZeboZAP gazebo tv mount and love how easy it our 43” tv strapped on the post. No drilling was required and not marks or holes were left on the gazebo post. The gazebo mount could swivel 360 degrees to watch from a anywhere gazebo. We have a pool beside the gazebo so we could watch tv from the pool as well. 🎉🎉🎉

Great job! Just a thought, one might use a Simpson ABU/ABA instead of the post bases. That would eliminate the need to cut the rebar and they give you 1” stand-off to allow water to run away from the bottom of the posts. Thanks for sharing your project.

Hi Nic, I love your creativity on this! 😍🥰Can you please tell me where you got the black concrete anchors? I found some similar but they don't have the holes for the screws. I would really like them so I can attempt to create this on my own.🤞I will be forever grateful. Oh, Also, I would like to know how it is holding up after a year. Thank you! 😁

It's going on two years old just fine. the black anchors came from Lowe's

I’m thinking of something similar on my deck. Isn’t that a lot of weight to be supported by the deck only?

@nics-systems-electric 2 жыл бұрын

It’s not all that heavy and it’s over the concrete footings anyways so it’s not putting much load on the deck that’s not supported directly underneath

@sunflower20505 Ай бұрын

Hey just wanted to let you know that this is a great help. I had a question around the concrete post anchor you used. So it is bolted to joist below? Aren't the joists too thin for it? Or the anchor is tied to the boards alone? Does it provide enough structural strength? Is it per building code? Asking because this is exactly what I needed for my build as well. Thank you so much!!

@cancroat-darylporter4881 11 ай бұрын

I guess that roof really doesn’t handle snow that well , if at all . Also anchoring into 2 x 6 deck boards is not going to last that long , maybe 4/5 years and then your entire structure will be ruined .

@stephenlennartz3466 Жыл бұрын

With all due respect to the creator of this video... I believe the base plates (with the rebar posts) are designed to go into concrete footings... NOT into deckboards. I'm planning a similar project for 2023 and have watched almost every YT video available on pergolas and pavilians-- all have concrete footings.

@cheapdad2813 Жыл бұрын

Not only that, but having the weight bare on a joist isn't sufficient. The post needs to either be on a girder/beam or on top of a post down to the footing.

@nics-systems-electric 2 жыл бұрын

I think it will be just fine it is stained so water shouldn’t soak into it at all and as it isn’t buried in the ground or in contact with the ground there shouldn’t be any reason for water to be soaked in

@mezz_o_nator4045 2 жыл бұрын

Isn't that footing super risky? I am not a contractor but what would happen it that 2x4 u put hole to hold 4x4 black anchors rots?

@bciecko1 2 жыл бұрын

Eventually it would all rot. It's wood. It is a 6x6 he used though. You would just replace the rotted wood. I don't know what the construction method of the platform deck is, underneath, but there are methods of constructing that minimize the ability for water to collect. Assuming that is the case, there really shouldn't be much worry.

@lisahurst7847 Жыл бұрын

You're absolutely right. The length of the fitting affects the stability of the post. It's there for a reason... stability.... And ... nevermind... Cute though. It's a start. And it definitely shows how simple that construction is. I love that the young man is doing it. Good lesson in regards to what One is capable of.
