Garage detached or not?

Garage detached or not?

I am doing a residential job in which the 2 car garage is joined to the house by a breezeway arrangement of a covered walkway with the roof and walkway tied into the porch. The breezeway is about 15' long.

No Ahj to ask here. How would you treat this garage?

Any opinions would help.

When I do an inspection as you have described, I consider the garage as attached. After all the whole building is attached together and a lot of people enclose these breezeways.

Hope this helps

The tubafor framing replaces the ground rod

If you need a better ground go to tubasix.

(Don't take this seriously)
