The back deck is attached to a cantilever. This is bad because we are unable to determine how the rim board of the house is attached to the floor joist. More than likely, the face board is face nailed into the ends of the floor joist. And then the deck header is attached to the rim board of the house. This is a problem because when people walk on the deck, the deck is going to shake a little. Then over time the shaking will result in the nails pulling out of the rim board and floor joist attachment point. Then the deck will fall.
The repair is to independently support the deck at the deck header and the house.
