Need Patio Cover Design Opinions

13 years ago

I am going to build (hopefully) the patio cover that will look like the drawings I made and posted on Google, see link below.

It is unattached and no permit is needed. It is also in Oklahoma "where the wind comes sweeping down the plain." I will be using P.T. lumber, the 4x4s ground contact rated.

I would like some opinions on whether it will stand the test of time.

All opinions are welcome.

Thank you for your time.
