Re: Beam Question
A fellow inspector called me to ask so I don't have pictures. The beam 40 feet is resting in beam pockets in a residence. Its seated into the pocket by 4 inches on each endand there are 3 supporting posts. I didn't think cementing in the ends was required but I'm drawing a blank so I thought I'd ask. Oddly I looked at mine and they are cemented in, hence the question. Its heck to get old and not remember little things.
