    The collar ties are in the top third of the rafter and look to be added to the underside of the timber rafters , hard to see what connection is there but there is no ridge beam and if there is no other crossing beams the structure is relying on those short collar ties to resist the beams from thrusting outward under roof loading

    One fucking timbertite it looks like. I'd say that's not a whole lot of surface area holding those on.

    Bolts have probably torn through the grain on all the ends of the collar ties

    That, I honestly don't know. I know permits were pulled and I assume inspections were done. But I guess they'll get that all hammered out in the following days.
    Yeah no kidding. We're super thankful

    They would have been better off to put plates on the outside of the crossbeam not those single bolts...The beams look strong enough just the attachment looks weak

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    I'm surprised also. I see the plates a lot with modern timber framing. Or at least a good mortise and tenon like the old days

    Just wanted to reach out to my TacomaWorld mates and ask you to not drink and drive this holiday season. There isn’t one of you that wouldn’t be missed so please, look out for yourself and look after your mates. It’s never worth the risk.

    Besides, who are the rest of us going to argue about what size tires will fit stock trucks if you’re gone?

    Can’t believe that this video is nine years old already, yet it’s still one of the most powerful campaigns I’ve ever seen against drunk driving.



    Enjoy your holiday, and I look forward to you being here with us in 2019.

    Best wishes,
    G.T.
