Building A Carport Off Side Of House. If attaching the carport to your house, measure and cut another bearing beam and, making sure that it is parallel to the first, attach to the side of your house. Have a place for everything and keep every part in its place.
Building the roof for the carport is the next step of the outdoor project. Cut the side beams and clamp them to the posts, aligned horizontally on the outside of the carport, so the tops of the beams are flush with the tops of the posts. Dig holes deeper than the frost line and taper them wider at the bottom for stability.
