September 2016 Remodeled basement stairway landing

   I remodeled the basement stairway landing area which supports the main floor stairway going to the loft. The clearances were to small and it did not look right. I sandwiched the two TGIs on both sides with 2 x 10s, using construction adhesive and carriage bolts. I then built a header out of two 2x12s
and using hangers, attached them to the two sandwiched TGIs. I attached the TGIs that met this header with TGI hangers. Now the ceiling is flush again. One end is supported by the basement wall system, the other end by two treated 4x4s.
