![]() Either 10 or 12” diameter round cement blocks- designed to sit in bottom of hole ![]() I’ll then attach the post between the dual 2x12’s that’s banded around outside & inside of the bottom...with a few screws to hold in place. Then I’ll mix up some Quickrete & pour down around the 48” hole. Planning to do 4-5 per day, to prevent any disruption of the current foundation. After all post all hardened up; I’ll be able to easily raise up box more & completely level the rooftop,,,place concrete blocks underneath the post that holds the upper beams...then I’ll bolt the 6x’s that are sandwiched between the 2x12’s together ![]() 48” deep post will be 24” on center (plenty) and afterwards,I’ll bring in the crush & run...and wacketpacket it ![]() I’ll then make a form (min 6” thick w/rebar) and put down concrete.....then I can lower the box back down onto the slab after everything dries ![]() Buried post will be bolted & provide majority of holding strength & also will be in code for my region ![]() A bit of work involved,,,but it’s OK, as the front post will end up 5’ or more deep ![]()
