The Decks were not bolted into the foundation, nor did chuck install enough cross members. If you look at the gaps, they are 30″ apart. i am not sure what code is, but we had to redo them at somewhere between 12-15″ when they were inspected. The wood was not treated before putting the top boards on and the worst part was… the pylons chuck sank were not appropriate for the size and weight of the deck. Since they were too small for code, there should have been at least a retaining wall installed, but as you can see there was not.
Studs not braced properly and wood was not treated
before putting on the top boards.
