Building A MASSIVE Deck Part 3 - Roof Framing and Sheathing
What happens here
The project begins with an aerial view of the existing house and backyard, showing the initial stages of the deck construction. Concrete is poured for the base of the outdoor living area, followed by the framing of the deck structure itself. This foundational work sets the stage for the roof addition, ensuring a stable platform for the new overhead structure.
Goal: Prepare the deck and a stable base for the roof structure.
