You would not believe the new 2009 IRC codes regarding decks. just a single railing post requires an additional $25 in hardware and specialized connectors to meet the current code. But its funny how the ony way to meet the code is by using Simpson hardware. (who just so happens to be on the IRC council.....)
Some of the codes i can agree with though , due to the fact that there have been so many deck collapses over the year due to very poor construction. But the majority of them i feel are rediclulous.
