how to purt a shed roof on a deck
 

I have built my deck, and now need to put a shed roof over it, I don't know where to start next.

I'd go to your local Building Department and ask them. You will probably need: post bases and caps for positive ties; more through-bolts at the ledger for withdrawal; a post or two at the F.P. cantilever as most jurisdictions require. They will have the answer to your questions to meet code and keep your family safe.

With a permit you won't have to remove it when you sell, and you will be covered against any accidents by your Home-owner's Insurance.

Be safe, G
