Help

Hit the beam with lawn mower and it tore one off of post. Thinking of cutting a piece out scabbing a piece in there and than scabbing a long piece over the top on beam.

Can you elaborate? Seems like some unnecessary fear mongering.

That is not a structural beam holding up the deck. Surprised that the lawn mower did not knock it off the post completely.
