Hoist Assembled Posts and Headers into Anchors
Prepare four scrap 2x4 to temporarily brace the posts after being hoisted into place.
Hoist one post and header structure upright and place bottom end of posts into anchors. Use a
level to ensure that posts are plumb and secure into anchors with choice of hardware. Consult
Simpson installation instructions for proper procedure. Brace the posts laterally using 2x4 to
keep them from falling over during assembly. Secure the 2x4 braces to both the post and the
ground.
Repeat for opposite side.
