The new deck attachment has been designed by engineer Dave Vreeland based on our site visit two weeks ago. Unfortunately, Dave has gotten a bit behind because he's working on multiple storm related projects in the hill towns. I'd like to proceed with the demolition and reconstruction of the deck with the understanding that I will provide Dave's stamped drawing and call for an inspection of the deck attachment before we cover it up, as the microlam ledger, fasteners, and hanger arrangement will not be visible after we sheath it and install rubber roofing. Please let me know if this is acceptable. Thank you i ,,e, Nelson Shifflett h '1 t slims z ` oti # 1 . 1 .
