Have a porch outside that is cracked and rotten, and the header boards are split and can’t be drilled/screwed into. So I need to replace those. What’s the correct way to attach 2x6 headers to concrete blocks, to remain secure and proper? This would specifically be for 2x6s flat against the concrete, not end to concrete.
My gut says tapcon, but my head says you’d better look up the code for that one. Deck collapses can be pretty ugly and you don’t want to have an insurance claim denied because you didn’t build to code.
