just a little weekend project....

this is a long delayed project, we need to jack up this two story building, using 4 floor jacks expanding 16 ft across the floor joist at a time, and replace the rotten sill plates on 2 sides of the building.

labor cost, 10 day project, framer 70 hours @ $11/hr, helper 15 hours at $8/hr.

下次最好可以实地参观下．

why do you need jack up the building? foundation issue?

this is not my pic but same system of what I use....using a 16 ft 4x4 across the joists give a leveled support to the building, much better than using regular point support jacks which are hard to give even support thru out.
