Construction Daily

Today Vernon and Tim lowered the upper loft. Somehow the original crew managed to overlook the phrase "Use Joist Hangers" which appears on the blueprints. Thus they installed the upper loft joists on top of the timberframe. The net result is that the loft is a foot higher than it is supposed to be, which will definitely cause sightline issues when there are live performances. To verify this, I climbed up onto the loft and Shannon sat in a chair on the main level and we figured that lowering the loft would be the difference between a visitor being able to see a performer's instrument (guitar etc.) or not. So we made the call - lower it.
