If you are going to place the header across the top of your 4x4s (or whatever size you are placing on your cement piers) you would be fine with a double 2x10. The disadvantage with this type of system is that you need to support the whole assembly from doing 'knee action' (nothing holding it from tipping over). If you are bolting 2 beside the 4x4s, you would need 2x12s. The extra 'meat' should allow you to get enough bolts thru it to help it from collapsing. (This system is one way to assure the whole assembly will not just tip over under your joists.) Greg
