Hello,
Yes, that's correct, post, plate, tie. Although, nominally the configuration would be post with tie beam morticed and tenoned on top of that and then the plate. In other words, and the conception of this little lean to construction, post, tie beam & brace assembly, or bents, raised up and the plate connecting one bent to the other(s). Traditional?
I use assembly as a noun, but reading the glossary of the Timber Framers Guild it seems to be used as a verb.
Greetings,
Don Wagstaff
