Open Questions
Where does the mud sill attach to the joists? At the end? At the top of bank?
Mud sill length will determine the width of the bridge. How do we cut 8" deep wood?
Composite for the Handrail?
Skill Build Sequence
Mud sill location
Handrail post drill. Hole location is determined by the height of rail to deck (32"? 36"?)
Field Build Sequence
Demolition

How deep? Deeper is better, but existing conditions dictate. Cut handrail post to correct depth.
