I have an elevated back porch 25 feet off the ground. I got a hot tub for a Christmas present and want to make sure my back porch can support a 6 person hot tub. I have 2x6's running length wise and a few 2x8's running cross wise. In addition 3/4 plywood is covering the 2x6's to walk on. Anyone with more knowledge on this have any guidance? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
@primetimeygb21,
25 Feet!
You need professional design. There are
so many things that can go wrong.
@primetimeygb21,
Check out this article, then get a contractor/engineer to advise you on your specific situation. Also check what code laws and permit requirements apply to your location.
