Sealing the soffit under the deck
The deck extends over the edge of the foundation, overlapping the 10″ blocks of Neopor insulation that that will attach to the foundation wall below. The underside of the cantilever is sealed to make the shell of the house airtight.The underside of each beam is glued with OSI SF-450 adhesive. The bead runs along the perimeter of the connection point. The screws go through in the middle to avoid breaking the bead seal. The two-by-four lumber under the soffit is an attachment point for the Neopor blocks of rigid foam insulation. The blocks will be notched out to fit. All gaps will be filled with spray foam insulation.
