House Trusses
The house trusses arrived on time today. So most of the morning was taken up with sorting and unloading the trusses on the house. There was some problems with the front porch. After considering and pondering for several hours about the placement of the post blocks, it was finally decided that the trusses were to short for the porch, and will have to be redone.
Another issue, Keith discovered today that the engineer had change the specs on the header beams for the garage. Although, we have 4 inch walls in the garage, he changed the header specs to call for 6 inch material. I'm going the have Dennis contact the engineer and see if we can get a correction. I will also have to go back to the county and submit a change on the approved plans. Oh bother.
