    When the deck comes tumbling down

    I found the deck post connection on a screen grab, but don't know how to post the picture without the URL. No wonder this deck collapsed. I am sure someone will get sued. You can see 6 nails at the post for attachment. Amazing it lasted that long before the collapse.

    When the deck comes tumbling down

    Concentrated load to the perimeter caused whatever attachment they had at the support posts to let go. Would be interesting to see how the deck was attached to these posts. Obviously defective installation.
