Nice job!

Is the part you added on the cantilevered section? What is the extended length of that section? It appears to be roughly 4'. If so, that would greatly exceed what the IRC code allows. Was the design approved by a structural engineer or an architect?

Also, how are the posts attached to the footings/piers?

mike13 - I will have to measure that at home later. I have the drawings here but it doesn't show that. What is the allowable measurement?
No, the design was provided by the decking contractor.

I will check on the attachments as well.
Thanks so much!

2' maximum.

The 2002 IRC says:

9. Floor joists for exterior decks may be cantilevered a maximum of 24" w/ the following conditions:

a. 2"X10" SYP joists, 16" on-center.
b. 2" nominal or less wood plank floor.
c. No stair stringers or platforms supported by cantilever.
d. Toe nail bottoms of joists @ support girder.
e. Framing is to be @ right angles to cantilever support girder.
f. No roof load on cantilevered floor section.

Yep, we are over. Contacting the installers shortly.

Thanks for the info.

Does the header extend 4 ft past the outboard post by the steps? If it is, there should be some type of angle or v brace off the post to support the header. I believe the max is 2 ft

That is a nice project,good detail,posts landing on piers,clean look.

The questions on the over hang seem petty to me,of course it may depend on the conection with that cool caped beam to the joist system but if the Man did that good a job on the rest of the deck I am thinking he made those conections in a way you are not going to have any problems with it. John
