We build about 3 ramps per month. Very much like yours. We now Torx screw only around the posts and transfers in slope to facilitate removal and reuse of the sections on the next project. About half of the ramps are only used for about a year, we air nail the deck boards with galvanized 2 inch ring shank nails except around the posts. We build a 30 foot ramp with one turnaround in about 4-6 hours with about 8-10 guys from about 4-6 Baptist churches. Air nailing is much cheaper than screwing and much easier to disassemble for reuse elsewhere. It takes about 4-6 guys to disassemble and load a no longer needed ramp on to our long bed trailer for storage at a local farm until needed.. we also have bought a power auger ethic an 8” blade. Holes go Down about 3 ft with no concrete. Makes removal easy. Hope this helps a bit. Bless you on your ramp ministry. Work safely. JoeB. Hertford NC Baptist Church

"... for unless the Lord builds the house, its builders..." Could someone complete this sentence or provide the full quote?
