Robert Jones Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Front porch cover. Is there a specific name for these rotted wood "supports"? Click to Enlarge 40.09 KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Well, According to my Illustrated Dictionary of Building Materials and Techniques it could be called either a bracket or a lookout; although it more closely defines lookouts with what we see most here, support for the deep overhanging eaves at the perimeter.

Robert Jones Posted February 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Mike, Thanks as always. Sounds like an interesting book. What did you look under to get that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 It was in the bookstore along with all the other books about construction and remodeling. The author was Paul Bianchina. I'm bet Amazon has it. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allseason Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Found it on Amazon, hard cover used for under $10 shipped, they have used soft covers for $.01 plus shipping. Too good to pass up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
