Timber decking boards are commonly used to create outdoor living areas, verandas, walkways, steps and platforms. The right decking system depends on exposure, board profile, treatment, supporting joist spacing, fixings, drainage and the finish required. Timber movement and weather exposure should be allowed for in the design and installation.
Provide the deck dimensions, board direction, expected board spacing, preferred lengths and delivery location. Allow for cutting and wastage when calculating quantity. Structural supports and connections should follow approved plans or engineering details. You may also need structural timber and suitable fasteners; confirm fastener compatibility for the selected decking system.
