Roof And Ceiling Details! PHANTOM POST PROJECT Ep 5

What happens here

Once the posts are firmly set in concrete, install the horizontal beam to connect them, forming the archway. The beam should be centered and securely fastened. After the arch structure is complete, proceed with laying the decking material around the base of the posts. Ensure that the decking is cut precisely to fit, leaving even, consistent gaps, and is securely fastened to the underlying structure. The final appearance should have a clean, classy look with smooth reveals.

Goal: The arch beam is installed between the two posts, followed by the installation of the decking material around the base of the structure. Careful measurement and proper attachment are key for a seamless finish.

We'll leave this Open so we can get the machine in and out while we're laying the patio But I can't wait to get those hanging egg chairs up.

This is thermally modified Which means it is rated for an exterior siding anything with weather exposure Not going to be a problem for this. They essentially treat this with heat and steam and It cooks out all of the sugars and everything that's inside of the wood So it makes it a lot lighter weight and it makes it resistant to all kinds of decay bugs Everything like that.
