That bolt was imbedded into the concrete.
Why not pull those wires and run them correctly? Why is it too late?
Why not pull those wires and run them correctly? Why is it too late?
Two carpentry questions
1. How do I attach the wood this way with the bolt and nut/washer? It's into concrete so first step is hammer drill. This is just a bolt that I push in by hand? So it's of the same diameter as the drill bit?
2. How do I put a piece of wood on top of this closet with the wires like that? It's too late to run them through the wood.

1. Are the blocks full of concrete? What will you be attaching here?
2. The joist is sitting on a wall so notching would be acceptable, it would have been better if you had notched up from the bottom before you installed it.
You also want to have solid blocking behind that, cut to fit in the spaces in the truss.
They are drywall backing and air and fire stop from one space to the next.
Seal the wire holes and notches.

1. Yes they are lintels. I'm filling in this missing piece of wood so they can do the garage door.
