WELCOME NEW Members!

Hi everyone. I never expected to be on a board like this, but I am a new homeowner with various issues in a restricted deed community and trying to learn codes and standards for myself since municipal officials have not explained themselves well and it leads to further questions. I've gotten some really good answers to my questions back very quickly here. Thanks everyone. I hope in the future I can contribute to others with questions related to affordable housing.

Welcome

We are just looking for a great cup of coffee

Hello all, I am new to the forum and looking forward to receiving insights from others. Hopefully I can can contribute to others as well. I am in the process of designing an addition of 16' x 25' and occasionally need input on code interpretations so looking forward to the conversations.

Hello everyone,

I'm just a 35 yo building designer in San Diego. I draw plans for clients to get permits for new homes, adds, remodels, decks, patio covers retaining walls, & of course everyone's favorite... ADUs.

I've been trolling this site for a couple years, just pilfering good info and never contributing any bad questions. So I wanted to do my part and ask others about my more creative projects and details from time to time.

In the last 12 months I've been watching/podcasting the build show and the unbuild it podcast with Matt, Steve, Peter, Jake and guests. Needles to say I have no business trying to be as good as they are. But if I ever find a client that is interested in building plans for high performance, durable, & efficient homes maybe I can make some nice construction details and help make a better home...

Thanks

I am new to this forum, look forward to expanding my knowledge on codes with everyone else. I am a building inspector at the local level, I often find myself with no one to share my conflicted situation with to get a better understanding.

Welcome. I too am on an island, except for this forum. Use it often and don't be shy. The only dumb question is the one not asked.
