This project involves the design for the construction of a new 12' x 36' elevated deck along the rear of the home, adjoining a brick exterior wall. The deck will use a freestanding structural design with three rows of posts (at the house, midpoint, and outer edge) to reduce reliance on the ledger connection. The structure should be built to support standard residential deck loads and accommodate integration with an adjacent 12' x 20' deck, which will be reinforced with additional footings and posts in preparation for its conversion into an enclosed sunroom.
The sunroom will be constructed with a lean-to roof tied into the existing structure and designed to support solar panel installation. Exterior siding for the sunroom should match the existing home to maintain architectural consistency. Plans should include structural framing details, footing layout, elevation views, and construction specifications required for local permitting and solar-ready compliance.
