Building a Deck
Ideas for Building a Deck
Depending upon the final shape of your deck and the final pattern of deckboards you want to create, the frame of your deck will need to be carefully planned so that the interior joists will support the deckboard design. Various deck design options are shown here and you will see that double joists may be required to accommodate some deckboard patterns. Also note the use of noggins between the interior joists that will strengthen the whole frame structure. Noggins can be made with short off cuts of the joist material.
