    Two foot centers , no double band n no footers or a stable base , you might as well use drywall screws to hold it together too ....amateur hour at its best

    good video, people be careful, the code in your area may not allow attaching a deck directly to a mobile home. It may need to be self supporting.

      In my area , attaching to a mobile isn't allowed UNLESS the home is permanently blocked with a 'foundation' similar to a stick-built home.
      I am building at this time a free-standing 10x16 'porch' with cover to replace old porch.

    I hope in the future you will do a deck for an above ground pool. I have a 24 ft above ground pool similar to yours.

    You are not supposed to fasten a deck to a mobile home guys

    Odd I didn't think it was an AREA ruling on attaching to a mobile home? I thought that was a HUD Rule. and illegal to attach a porch/deck etc to a mobile home. ( Unless it was designed for the structure at time of build)

      Hud is housing and urban development. Used for financing specific housing . Yes they have rules on mobile homes. Like you must have block skirting. I have been involved in getting a house to qualify for the lower interest loans. Deck being attached has never been a problem. Perhaps county or city ordinances can be involved. I have some larger towns allow no mobile homes at all.

    Thanks for the video. It would be better if you shot close ups of the work while it is being done, instead of the guy talking. That helps more to actually see the guy put in the lag bolts, up close. Plus it would be nice to see how you installed the decking and steps too.

      You are right. Will do video the next deck I can film and will film all the way thru. This particular one an ice storm came in and we had a hard time getting out with truck and trailer. I intend to do better thanx for your patience.

    I don't see how to attached the deck to the mobile home. is there a 2 X 6' used on the existing outside wall?

    • @StraightArrowRepair
      @StraightArrowRepair  3 роки тому

      All floor joist are fastened to an outside 2 by 6 called a ridge beam . The frame is also connected to the ridge beam by metal outriggers and lag bolts the floor plywood sits on top of that 2 by 6 . The metal trim or vinyl siding trim is usually about 2 to 3 inches lower than that ridge beam fasten your deck to that. Wish you well on your projects

    Why are you putting 8 inch lags when you only have to go through 3 inches the ledger and the house band

    According to the International Residential Code², adopted by most states, a deck does not need a building permit if it is “less than 200 square feet, under 30” off the ground, does not serve a required exit door, and is not attached to the dwelling“ - if it is freestanding.
    Ledger boards are an invitation to disaster...
    Don't attach your deck to your home.
    Don't be stupid.
    This video demonstrates the WORST way to make a deck.
    This deck is not built ...it has been hung on a handful of fasteners.
