The place was built in 2008 and this is under a canopy entry. The column is anchored into a concrete footing. But as you can see they simply toe nailed the two together.

The photo is a king post/crown post connecting to the ridge beam at the end of a ridge where two hips meet. I could no see what type of suport was provided beneath the area due to the foam insulation. I have not seen a configuration like this, looks pretty creative. The ends of the tie beam beneath the post were rotating slightly and the tie beam was nailed to the trusses. Best I could do with the photos. This was a town home built in 07.
