Likely just a question of how much steel to place in the tops of the beams as they go over the bearings and out to the end.
Desired reach is 4 feet.
More detail to follow.

I have cantilevered Insuldeck about 7-8 feet. There was quite a bit of steel in the beams, but worked perfectly fine. I may have pics somewhere, so if you are interested, let me know. |

I am doing a 4' cant with BuildDeck now. We are using the 10" BuildDeck that has a 7.5" beam pocket, we wanted to use a flush beams but have to have a partial drop beam (6") in the area of the cant. The rest of the floor is open ended, it does not go wall to wall, there a flush beam works.
The BD beams that cant have two #4 top and bottom bar while the rest has just two #4 bottom. The floor topping will have #4 bar 24" oc ew. |

It can easily be done. I've designed many cantilevers of this type. But you MUST get an SE to look it over and get it reinforced for you, especially if you start exceeding 3-4 feet. |
