I have long had a problem with steel ledgers buried in the ground. My issue is that they rust out and fail. I typically use another technique (concrete ledger) for this reason. My architect is complaining that there is nothing wrong with the steel ledgers, especially if they arrive as stainless material. I have never seen a stainless ledger and was wondering if this is common, and cost effective based on others experience.
For clarity, the ledgers support 4 to 8' of stone veneer. Thanks in advance.
