Should I be concerned? Should I get it fixed?
Hi, looking for some advice on what to do with a damaged vertical 2x4 in the garage under the roof ridge. I moved into a house and later found one of the horizontal beams in my garage was lower (about 3/5”) than others. Upon further inspection, I noticed this vertical 2x4 came off the metal piece that was connecting the 2x4s to form the ridge. Compared to a good one, I noticed what the problem was (see pictures). My urge was to get it fixed, but the garage roof seems fine. If anyone of you who know about construction, please ask me some questions or provide some advice on what to do. Appreciate your time! submitted by /u/zuruspeedster [link] [comments]
