Attaching Ledger Board to Concrete Block or Concrete.

How to Attach a Ledger Board to Concrete Block for Deck Building In this video, we demonstrate a method for attaching a ledger board to a concrete block, a common construction method in certain areas. The process involves using six-inch lag bolts spaced every six inches to secure the ledger board, which was determined after consulting with the city to ensure compliance with local building codes. Key steps outlined include drilling, cleaning the holes, and driving the bolts in while torquing them to 70 pounds. Due to the inability to use traditional flashing with this technique, spacers made from composite decking are used to prevent water accumulation between the concrete blocks and the wood, thereby extending the deck's lifespan. The method is effective for maintaining dry wood and preventing rot, which is critical for the longevity of the deck. 00:00 Introduction to Attaching a Ledger Board to Concrete Block 00:12 Challenges and Solutions for Ledger Board Installation 00:20 Using Lag Bolts for Secure Attachment 00:46 Dealing with Flashing and Water Accumulation 01:16 Extending the Life of Your Deck Also available is a PDF where I share the essential lessons learned from this first DIY deck addition.
