<p>I am working on designing a second deck. I need to have the plan in place so I can plan how to install the backdrop. The backdrop decison allows me to complete the first deck (need to add some sort of spacer to the back of the layout sections to set the distance so that the backdrop doesn't impact the shelf brackets). The thickness of the shelf brackets determines the thickness of the bacdrop spacer. The back drop spacers combined will allow me to finish the first deck (currently there is an approximate 6" gap between my two sections of benchwork that needs to be filled in). </p> <p> </p> <p>The engineering question is this:</p> <p>Along one wall I have a 99" window opening where I cannot put any shelf brackets or supports. What is the best way of constructing and supporting this section of layout?</p>
