country Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Is there any way to set the defaults so the deck support beam and posts are not stepped back for a cantilever? I never have a cantilever and usually have a roof over the deck so require supports directly under the roof supports. This situation comes up on almost every plan I draw. I also would like to know if there is a way to frame the deck in at 90 degrees when it is wrapped around a corner. The program always puts the joist direction the same even when I split the spaces up but maybe I am just not doing something in the correct order.

ShaneK Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 In framing dbx use joist direction tool and bearing line tool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
country Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share Posted September 16, 2016 Thanks. I use them inside and forgot when doing the deck. Does that bring the deck supports out to the edge if you use the bearing line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
