new site new blog

since vox is shuting down we hav all moved to blogger

well might as well get started
this week ive been sick so i waz only able to join in on the last day of work but htis is what i know
we worked on the nogs which run inbetween the joists where the walls will be for support in thoses areas
since each nog is diffrent we hav to measure an cut to exzactly the right size too small an it wont fit and too big will cause the joist to bend an loose structural strength.
we install them by measuring out the points on the joists where the nogs will go
we then measure an cut the nog to size an place it in, make it level with the joists then nail it in

we also installed trimming joists this makes space for drains etc
a few things to remember:
1) when using the joist holders we must use the correct product nails
2) when cutting its always better to be a bit larger than a bit shorter
