Unfortunately Eric lost some pictures from his phone, but these will give one an idea of how the 2nd floor decking was done as a "hanging floor system". These are some joist hangers nailed to the beam over Julie's studio. And then a long shot showing the joists in their hangers.
Here, the deck is coming together. This is Sept 17th. We work on weekends and a few hours here and there when we aren't at our jobs. Believe it or not, a lot of this was done by one person, especially with the shorter joists.
Looking thru the joists...
On the left is the opening to the living room which will have a cathedral ceiling. In the foreground is an opening in the srairwell for light and air. |
Here, the decking is in place and the first floor is starting to get some shelter from the sun and rain. This was the wettest September on record, so it was difficult to find the time to get things done, but we did.
