		<description><![CDATA[DAY 6 &#8211; The Ledger
Fun fun fun&#8230;  I discovered a little secret today while working on the dual ledger for my deck.  If you have floor trusses in your home &#8211; maybe this is true for I-joists as well &#8211; you most likely do not have any type of ledger skirting between the trusses and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Concrete may not cure instantly, but it does cure quickly.  The Quikrete I used (Quikrete 5000) stated that it could support a 1500PSI load after 1 days of curing.  That&#8217;ll be strong enough for me to setup and mount posts, and by the time I get around to add the deck boards, it will most [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[DAY 4 &#8211; Pouring Concrete
Not nearly as fun as you would think – even if you think it might be the slightest bit fun.  Bags of pre-mixed concrete are extremely dusty, so a mask is a must, unless you would prefer to have a mustache made of cement.
SO, how much cement will you need?  The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[DAY 3 &#8211; Mapping Out The Foundation Piers
Luckily, you don&#8217;t need an engineers degree to layout the foundation piers for your deck, but you might need at least a little help from outsides sources (aforementioned books or the internet) to determine their position.  Here&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve gathered so far:

The easiest option for post placement is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[DAY 2 &#8211; Deck Plans
I should probably divulge my deck plan before going much further.  Unfortunately, I sit only at about 50% as this was going to be a two-level deck, the upper level being rather small and the lower level sprawling.  Arguments between whether the pergola we eventually want to also include will be [...]]]></description>

Now, I am not a carpenter, but I do have some decent carpentry skills.  I own more than my fair share of tools (don&#8217;t you always need a new tool for every job?) and I worked on a variety of wood projects: a table saw, bandsaw, compound miter saw (which I have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[DAY 0 &#8211; The Permit
We took it upon ourselves to build a deck this year.  Not an easy feat.  The planning alone has taken months.  Who would have thought that you would practically need an engineer&#8217;s degree to figure out how to build it so that it won&#8217;t collapse under its own weight, let alone [...]]]></description>
