I am adding a deck and shade structure to the back of my house. One of the supports for the shade structure needs to be attached to the exterior brick on the fireplace. I need to know if I can just drill a couple of holes and attach a 2×8 to the brick and use a joist hanger. From there the support will come out ~ 14 feet to a post. sitting on top of these supports will be a frame of 2×6’s to create a place to attach shade fabric. There will be little weight on the fireplace side. What do you all think of doing this? |
