i'm looking at building a huge deck that would cover up the basement egress windows, where would i find the regulations that restrict or define what i'm allowed to do

thanks, the more i read and the more i see they slapped this house together, the shingles didn't even have paper underneath. i think its safe to say the wall downstairs isn't any better

thanks, that's what i thought as well, the other problem is there is a load barring wall running the length of the basement that doesn't have the barrier below the bottom plate either. is there a safe way to shore it up while i year down sections of the wall to put it in correctly?

we just bought a fixer upper, the basement has been framed tight to exterior walls and there is no insulation between the two. there is also no barrier between the bottom plate and the floor. with the amount of snow we get here what would be the best solution to insulated this 1400 sq foot area?
