So is the post in the center or on one side? A guy wire to a chain holding up one end. The plate at the bottom of the post isn't flush with the footing. How strong is that piece of trim wood under the eaves? Strong enough to keep that heavy sail from flying away? How did they manage this?

>>2910933 (OP)
Apparently, your understanding of the term “OC” is as good as your pics understanding of structural integrity.
But it’s a fascinating picture, so I’ll let it slide.

I'd love to know how they ended up putting an outlet in on a different circuit but couldn't be arsed to daisy chain it at the outlet that's a foot away.
I could understand this bullshit if the carport wasn't in the same building, and it was some hacky 16 gauge extension cord thrown out the window, but someone was in that wall to put the dead outlet in to begin with.

It's because doing it the "right way" would've involved cutting into the wall for more than just a box and running a cable through the corner that is probably solid studs, and then they'd have to find a way to patch that 1960's era wallpaper. Really they should have used wiremold or something and done a surface mount. It would've still been shitty but not as shitty.

>>2911302
I'm sure we all agree that this is a quarter-ass solution at best. What I'm really interested in is, what's the minimum amount of extra ass you could put into this to not be ashamed of your alternative solution? I'm thinking a NEMA 5-15P inlet in place of the carport "outlet".

Bonus question: the sign and the picture seem to imply that the carport power needs to be disconnected regularly. Why?

>>2913084
I guess it was just a bodge job of things lying about. Or maybe they used to both be regular outlets, but somehow the circuit between them got disconnected. If I had to make a solution from things lying about, I’d use a panel-mount IEC-C14.

>>2910986
The chain is strapping the farside of the beam to the deck instead of having two posts supporting the deck load. Railing connecting to the house will not carry your deck load. The ledger and beam+posts are the support members.

If you sister the joists far enough into the house, then you can get around the posts. I'm not an engineer so I can't tell you exactly how far that needs to be to carry someone's fatass wife and hot tub.

That shouldn't be the bracket used if there's only one post and especially if it extends that high before being tied into something else. The way the other side is tied in to the side of the hose won't prevent sway either, you're relying on the ledger board for that which isn't great.

Those things get their strength because you'll have multiple posts tied into a beam running above them. You could mount one of those things in a vise with a 2 foot long piece of 4x4 properly secured and cause it to fail in one or maybe two different ways by just pulling on it. The threaded rod will definitely bend snd if you're strong enough you may even get the end of the board to split.

Someone on facebook is doing updates of this as it's getting built apparently. It keeps getting worse.

At least he called the council so hopefully it'll get condemned before they paint it up and it collapses on some unsuspected person a few weeks/days/hours after they've gone

>>2918036
where is it?

>>2918048
Can't find the facebook and probably shouldn't link to it anyway but this is in the UK. Guy is posting in /DIYUK/ on the other site.

And yes, they did build this with zero foundations on mud in a country where it's raining for half the year. I am genuinely hoping the council does send someone around seeing more of it. Their neighbours don't deserve to be in the vicinity of that deathtrap.

>>2918051

Assuming there's not an access panel to its left into the next room (one of my tubs has something like that leading to a bedroom closet), I'd assume you pop out the sink and take out the cabinet under it. It looks like that's an independent section and that would get you plenty of room.

>>2920929
This one makes so little contextual sense that I'd call it a product of AI if the writing on the insulation weren't consistent. What the hell is even going on here? There's a floor level window or big doggie door, framing that appears to be over top of other framing and drywall, nothing is square, black iron pipe to nowhere, and that's before we even tackle the plumbing and wiring issues. Did someone get their kid to install a new laundry room?

The guys that installed this box said it was the most complicated one they've ever had to put together, made no small amount worse by the fact that of the 9 multiwire branch circuits, exactly 0 were labeled or had handle ties on the old box, so they had to find them all.

As an added bonus, the MWBCs meant instead of GFCI breakers we just had to stick GFCI outlets all over the house. And of course the house circuits are so damn random you could lose lights in the garage and have to figure out you need to reset the GFCI in a wall outlet of a bedroom on the other end of the house to get it back, so all the GFCIs had to be the kind with alarms so you can actually fucking find the damn things.

>>2923108
I'm confused. I know how MWBC's work, but why are half of yours combining 15A and 20A breakers? Is it all 12AWG or did they run THHN so they could cheap out with half 14AWG hots? Also with that many circuits, how did they end up with lights downstream of GFCI outlets? And maybe they don't make them for that panel, but two-pole GFCI breakers are definitely a thing; I've used them for MWBC's in a garage before.

>>2923112
>but why are half of yours combining 15A and 20A breakers
Because they're 15A and 20A circuits. They match the breaker to the wire.
>so they could cheap out with half 14AWG hots
This. They also didn't run a bunch of ground wires they said they ran. They just stuck 3 prongs in where my grandmother said she wanted grounded outlets and lied. Not everywhere, but in enough of the house that it's a bitch. Conversely we found a bedroom that as it turns out was grounded and was stuck with 2 prongs because nobody knew.
>how did they end up with lights downstream of GFCI outlets
Literally everything is downstream of outlets except the 7 240V circuits, the lights over the sink in the family room, the furnace/thermostat, the combination light/heater/fan for one of the bathrooms (sorta, it has a built in outlet in the housing), and IIRC some if not all of the basement lights. We're trying to upgrade the house to have GFCI everywhere appropriate or where needed due to the lack of grounds and it just worked out that they had to go in a lot of shitty positions to hit everything.
>And maybe they don't make them for that panel, but two-pole GFCI breakers are definitely a thing
You cannot put MWBCs on a GFCI. Any GFCI has to be after the split.

Also several of the breakers were incorrectly sized before, they had 2 15As on 20AWG lines, 2 20As on 14AWG lines, and a 30A on an 14AWG line. Oh, and I found every fuck up you can imagine working on the electrical before we got to the box up to and including just an uncapped live wire lying on top of metal ceiling light housing.

>>2923108
Edit: I misspoke, there are 8 MWBCs, not 9. Wasn't looking closely and thought the 240V on the right was a MWBC.

>>2923121
>>2923112
>You cannot put MWBCs on a GFCI
That might have been on MWBCs with different amperages specifically. I can't remember which. Anyway it worked out that we couldn't use em where we needed em. You'll note 5/8 of those MWBC are 15A/20A.

>>2923121
I get that you have to match the breaker to the wire, but having different ampacities defeats the purpose of using a MWBC which is to use 12/3 or 14/3 so you're not running twice as many neutral and ground conductors. If they ran 12/2 for the 20A circuit and then also a single 14AWG conductor for the 15A circuit, that's retarded. Having both circuits be either 20A or 15A would have allowed them to use GFCI breakers at the panel.

Also I have never seen 20AWG wiring in a house at all, how old was that initial installation? Sounds like a fucking mess.

>>2923131
>how old was that initial installation?
IIRC about 63 years old. It was just when they were transitioning from fuses to breakers so the first box was rare a hybrid system with a main fuse and then breakers for all the lines.

>If they ran 12/2 for the 20A circuit and then also a single 14AWG conductor for the 15A circuit, that's retarded.
It let them not run neutrals for the last legs of the 15A circuits. I'm sure they did it cause it saved them a bit of supplies, money, and labor.

And if they had given a shit they would have marked that they did it or tied the breakers together or fucking anything. We didn't even know they did that shit until I noticed the hots and neutrals for an outlet I was replacing didn't add up.

Turned out I was working on where the 2 halves of the circuit joined and one half had the breaker on still. If anyone had turned on the light in the bathroom while I was working, I'd have been zapped. Let me fucking tell you, the amount of hatred I feel for the dipshits that did the initial install cannot be fucking measured. Their dipshittery almost got me shocked multiple fucking times and I had to clean up a bunch of their less dangerous fuckups and shitty work too.

I believe it when the electricians said it was the worst box install they've ever been put through.

>>2910933 (OP)
that's cantilevered construction meaning the deck joists are incorporated into the floor joists.
it's probably rock solid, especially with the centre post

>>2923139
Oh, as long as I'm venting, the layout for the house's wiring is turbocursed with 8 different rooms/halls and the back yard each being on 4+ circuits so you had to triple check every time you were turning off power before working on something to make sure you weren't about to walk back to a live wire after walking all the way down to the ass end of the basement where the box is. Special shout out to the smallest bedroom in the house having a different circuit on each fucking wall.

And you fucking know the old circuit breaker panel directory was incomplete as shit to the point of being unusable, so we had to remap the entire house before we could even begin working.

Remembering both making and working with this makes me want to curl up in a ball and just do nothing but hate existence for a few hours.

>>2911295
honest question, for real because I've never seen those in my europoor country: do they stand well the passage of time? what do you do if you have structural damage due to water for example? do you tear down the building and rebuild it? how common are these type of wooden structures for apartment buildings?

>>2923183
Legitimately never heard of a building getting torn down for water damage unless the roof got completely fucked up or there was major flooding and most tall wooden buildings like that that I've seen have a lower floor made of a different material so flooding wouldn't really be as big of an issue.

Anyway the US doesn't really intentionally build disposable buildings outside of the gulf states and Nevada. Just cause it's wood doesn't mean it isn't built to last.

Also veneers and siding are all over the damn place, so telling what's made of what can be a chore.

>>2912934

Are you implying Americans still have outlets that are not grounded? You truly are a backwards people.

>>2924318
Depends on when the house was built. My parents' old place was built in 1913 and, while they had updated some of the wiring in the 40 years they owned it, a lot of it was still the original ungrounded 2-prongs until after they sold it to a flipper and it all was updated.

Looking at the risk factors, suddenly it makes sense they went with a concrete dome. Too bad they didn't consider the 99% humidity factor.

>>2923039
kek, moron spotted

>>2925541
This seems like a good idea. What's wrong here?

>>2925567
If its genuinely for cat shit then why is it on a table? Cat shit is extremely volatile the smell goes very quickly. Piss however turns to ammonia if you don't clean it and will fucing kill them in those gas chambers with the lids on.
Also a lot of cats don't like the lids and it traps their tails.
If its an improvised fume cupboard then poor visibility and working access. Also no extraction force.

>>2925589
its in a basement not in their living room. The table is obviously not for anything else than cat pooping. The height is to make cleaning easier. It's obviously a great solution to a few problems.

>>2921693
Then take ten seconds to crop it before sharing?

>>2925589
ammonia is lighter than air. Also I strongly doubt that shit is airtight. If anything the problem with the setup is it won't be that effective, but it's not gonna hurt anything except the table they clearly are willing to sacrifice.

Only issue I see is you effectively have your basement constantly open to the outside which might cause some issues with the temperature and humidity in your house and create a draft. It doesn't take much to fuck that shit up.

>>2925099
This is a fine example of how fucked the housing industry is, and why people can't afford houses. This is a shed, literally unlivable without thousands of dollars in cleanup, renovation, and repairs unless you really really want to die of mold exposure, and they're still trying to sell this structure for 50 grand, plus HOA fees. A building in this condition should hardly cost more than the land it's on, especially since it may be more cost effective to demolish the place and build anew.

>>2925613
the cat really goes down in to the basement for toilet? i thought the rule was 1 box per floor

>>2925798
>i thought the rule was 1 box per floor
Never heard that rule.
Trained cats will use the litter box wherever it is. In ~30 years of my family having cats, it's only ever been an issue once, when an elderly cat decided to be a lazy ass and occasionally couldn't be bothered to go in the box (legit shit *beside* the box a couple times, come on). Even still he usually was good about it, it was probably just stiffness/arthritis making it uncomfortable to step inside.

>>2925798
>i thought the rule was 1 box per floor
The rule is 1 box per cat+1. The per floor rule is smoke detectors.

>>2918925
>you shouldnt be posting on 4chan above the age of 40

just cat cope. nobody but the owner is pulling that lid off, and ducting cat fecal offgassings is nothing compared to the cancerous shit they bring into your house via half dead animals and carpet pissing.

>>2918925
>>2918994
Oh anons

>>2925840
You've told me you hate cats, while also not understanding them. I have a pair of cats. They use their box, don't destroy my house, and are generally very affectionate. The difference is that I took the time to train them a little bit. Care is all it takes to have a good cat. If somebody's home is cat piss central, that's the fault of the owner. It's just like a kid with a shitty upbringing.

It's funny. People keep saying it's an American problem, but then you see who is building the houses and it all makes sense. My brother's home was built by second chance junkies, and most of the new houses around here are built by those who can't speak English.

The process and the absolute overconfidence the guy has while doing shit like cutting into his engineered i-beam floor joists so he could sink the tub lower into the floor are a key part of the story.

It's a saga of a stupid, overconfident douchebag trying to DIY an ugly, flashy bathroom that he doesn't even plan to use as his main bathroom, that doesn't fit with the rest of the house, and being so overconfident about it that he turns it into a drama war.

Just like how Groverhaus was about the process more than it was just about the ugly addition to the house.

they're fucking shit though, emptying water is for poors. your clothes still feel damp too. it's far better for all concerned to use loads of power and pump that dirty damp air into the atmosphere where it belongs.

>>2919000
the anti homeless aspect of those train station benches is usually that they are grated, meaning wind can easily pass through making it cold to sleep on

>>2927550
>emptying water is for poors
Most allow attaching a drain hose.
>your clothes still feel damp too
Mine had a dryness setting (it has a moisture sensor).
>it's far better for all concerned to use loads of power and pump that dirty damp air into the atmosphere where it belongs.
Vents are a fire hazard. Also, as evidenced by the picture, they're not possible at every location. Not everyone wants to waste a bunch of power when you can just wait a bit longer. A condenser dryer cycle takes about as much time as a washing cycle.

Commit crime to solve crime. What an elegant solution. I think if we shoot murder tards on sight it will solve the problem.

>>2927568
Being ventilated is pretty normal for benches because it means they don't retain water at all. Anti-homeless designs make it so that it's hard to lay across the bench, be it by weird seat angling, interruptions in the continuity of the bench, or or being too short to lay on.
