Today was a thinking day. Had to come up with a plan for staging my joist hangers on my two end boards to complete the doubling up of members for the total deck frame. I pre-positioned and partially affixed the hangers while on the ground (under the patio and fan!). I left one side unsecured to give me some flexibility in controlling the end level of the joist when aligned with the rest of the frame.
I then slung these boards into position on the mostly assembled frame. I anticipated having to use bracing or clamps to keep them in position, but the fit was so tight this was not required. In fact, it took a little hammering to "scootch" them into place:
Now I'm ready to pick up a 6 count of 16' 2X10s and drop them into the joist positions.
