Sorry if it’s a silly question I can’t find info about it online
I’m building a patio canopy. I’ve got the wood it’s outside in the wet.
I’m about to secure the main front beam to the posts.
Then I’ll be fitting beams from ledger to main beam that hold the roof sheets.
It will all be secured together.
but if the wood is wet when I do this as it’s been in the rain then once the roof is on and the wood dries out won’t it all shrink and put my framework under stress?
Thanks
