What happens here

The video concludes with a pan showing the completed section of the deck's sub-frame. Multiple joist hangers are visible, correctly installed and securely fastening the pressure-treated wooden joists to the main beams. The structural integrity is further highlighted by showcasing the vertical pressure-treated wooden posts, which are anchored into the ground (likely with helical piles or concrete footings, though not explicitly shown) using metal post bases, providing essential support for the entire deck structure.

Goal: Visually inspect the completed joist connections and overall frame.
