That bolt was imbedded into the concrete.
Why not pull those wires and run them correctly? Why is it too late?

Do you mean when they poured the lintels? I don't believe so. Any way, I could always just Ramset the new piece in. Some of them are like that anyway.That bolt was imbedded into the concrete.

1. Yes they are lintels. I'm filling in this missing piece of wood so they can do the garage door.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.
I have not used an anchor bolt that you push in by hand, they need to be hammered in.1. Yes they are lintels. I'm filling in this missing piece of wood so they can do the garage door.
Do you know the proper diameter wedge anchor for this? I can't find this info online.I have not used an anchor bolt that you push in by hand, they need to be hammered in.1. Yes they are lintels. I'm filling in this missing piece of wood so they can do the garage door.
Not sure what you used but anchor bolts would work fine.
I would just use 1/2", we never used smaller for anything and always had 1/2" and 5/8" left overs in the truck. Two of them will be fine for that.Do you know the proper diameter wedge anchor for this? I can't find this info online.

We never drill the wood separately. The hammer drill bit will drill the wood and just keep going into the concrete. Drill 1/2" extra deep incase you can't get all the dust out.
Great idea!For the closet deal, if it is those two yellow (#12) wires, just notch the top of that horizontal two bye, slide the wires down,and put an electrical wire nailing plate over it (fifty cents maybe). Done.
