The wood construction sheet in the City of Hamilton's set of sample permit drawings, beside its concrete porch and deck sheet. Drawn as two plan views, two elevations and a site plan, it pairs each blank (joist size and spacing, pier diameter, decking and guard rail material) with a worked example: a 2x8 ledger lag bolted to a block foundation at 32 inches on centre, 10-inch sonotube piers belled to 14 inches. A note on the sheet addresses attachment at a brick veneer wall, where the deck bears on piers.
