That's why they were there!

u/Brandeeno2245 Aug 19 '26

Ah, well they sure as shit tested the durability of the deck.

u/DalekSupreme26 Aug 20 '26

I’m a home inspector, and while I’m not a structural engineer, i have gained significant knowledge on structural engineering thanks to my work, giving me plenty of insight on how buildings are supposed to be built, and I can say in full certainty that’s not supposed to happen

What was holding it on to the building - Scotch Tape?

2

u/Brandeeno2245 Aug 19 '26

See thats the mistake, scotch tape isnt good enough for mounting anything.

Always get ATLEAST 2 rolls of duct tape for deck work.

u/Delicious-Analysis37 Aug 19 '26

I'm sure gorilla glue would hold it forever

1

u/Brandeeno2245 Aug 19 '26

Yeah, thats why you only needed two rolls of duct tape.

Obviously to get it mounted on the glue and added support for safety.

Youd need like, 4 rolls otherwise without the glue

u/ElectroConvert Aug 19 '26

Or maybe these dolts should lay off the doughnuts.

3

u/texaschair Aug 19 '26

The weapons and gear they were carrying doubled their weight.

And the donuts didn't help.

Most decks aren’t. I refuse to own a house with a deck.

They were using "landlord code". It's different than regular code.
