There is no magic fix for that. IF you want solid a repair it will be a cut and couple. If you want a high class bandage, they make these for a reason.

we got the last 8 post assemblies knocked out to finish the cantilever. It is about 90% fabrication and 10% welding IMO.
Layout, design, redisign.
Oh look, Squirrel!
That happened today.
The 5 posts in line down the cantilever walkway are equidistant at 73.5" OC.
The two on that angle section are tabbed off to the side to get the bolts in. The bolting tabs are 1/2 x 1 hot rolled, to get the post away from the flashing kick. Also makes them hell for stout.
I had two that I had to tack in place, because the hole was determined by a Simpson DTT1Z Deck Tension Tie on the back side. It was too dark so here is another one on those solar panel combos.
They transmit that top bolt load into the joist, rather than RIP the rim board off.
The little hoop of .187 wall is the squirrel moment. I was thinking of some way to add a future small awning, and kicked around a few ideas. Came up with using the 187 from the stair posts, since the 1" I had scrapped does a decent enough job fitting inside it. I put two of the hoops on each of those 5 posts.
Now I can add a plant rail, or a little awning, or what have you without any drilling. Just hang it in the sockets.
I made them short so I could clean up the spatter and get paint in there, and belt sand the weld out of it.
It was getting too late to paint so I brought them in before they flash rusted after all that cleanup.

In the first image, the door on the top, if you don't mind me asking, What's the slab size of that door?
all the doors are 3'0" 6'8"
I wanted good access for all. it is the same model of door below it, only without the 3 lites.
