Question 1
What is the common problem in these two pictures from the same home.
Question 2
This is Huber Engineered Woods (HEW) Zip System sheathing and ZipSystem Tape. What am I demonstrating in these two pictures?
Question 3
What is wrong with this attic access point?
Question 4
This is looking up about 20’ - 25’ above floor level. What simple framing error can be seen here with the roof structure? Don’t get complicated and to help better understand this a second picture is displayed here from a little farther out and taken from a little left. You are looking through a vaulted ceiling and up to the roof. In the first picture that is a gable roof ridge with a hip roof coming down on either side of it (the gable protrudes from the hip roof section).
Question 5
This is new construction with a single pour for the foundation and porch out to, and just beyond, the support columns seen. What’s wrong here?
Let’s have some fun with music
