I think we’re talking about different areas of framing on this stair set.

What’s a stand-off?

I used a whole box of 5” grks

I walked up and down them plenty of times they’re fine

The blocking on both outer ends will never be stepped on, and if they are they have the added support of the deck board.

Decking calls for 9-10” centers minimum, and picture frame treads new the blocking for miters to rest on and attach to.

G tape applied on the bottom of stringers

The post framing+ stringer blocking took me 4 hours myself. I sleep at night very well knowing my work will not receive call backs

I disagree completely. An extra half day and $175 in materials is a no brainer, if you want a wobbly, squeaky, messy deck, then go for it!

Lol, you’re the kind of homeowner I stay away from. I usually end up making less because I go overboard to ensure a fantastic result

That’s smart. Homeowners are very aware to be nowhere near it, but I didn’t think of people doing things on purpose. Thanks!

It’s actually the minimum requirement for the deck boards I used ??

Lmao, sorry Carle I can’t help myself. First time working this township and I want to start on a good foot with the township!

It’s Azek composite decking, requires 9-10” centers. 3 would definitely not work

They are exterior coated, they won’t corrode for a very long time

Do you think posts attached to slab with post/Crete hardware is safe to do?

I had figured it would be totally firm but there is a tiny bit of bounce if I jump on it, I’m going to add center 4x4s so it’s totally solid
