What do you mean lanes? But I would not go out on that deck or go underneath it as those "posts" do not look strong enough to support that weight.

They are grounded like these

Was it wrong to cover them?

The posts (not the footings) do look a bit slight/insubstantial. What lanes are you questioning?

Thank you, Sammie. Might need an assessment. I’m curious about the pattern. I cannot find anything similar to it online. It’s not ‘random’ but at the same time it doesn’t have a symmetrical look to it. Just curious.
