3 Installation Checklist Building code and zoning requirements Check deed restrictions, building codes and/or zoning laws to make sure your deck complies. Check with local utility companies to make sure deck construction will not disturb piping or wiring. Deck function While planning your deck, determine how it will be used. Your climate While planning your deck, consider local weather. Take advantage of good views. Install ledger Install ledger to anchor deck to house. Ledger placement determines the deck floor level, normally 2-4" below floor line. If unsure about attaching a ledger board, consult a professional. Use batterboards and mason's string to mark off deck area and locate footing. Square with string Attach string to ledger and/or batterboards. Batterboards go just outside perimeter corners of the deck. Use the method to get a 90 degree angle in one corner. Install posts Locate posts by measuring in from batterboards. Postholes can be 24" deep and up to 4' deep depending on height of column and depth of frost line. Check the frost line in your area. Determine method of setting post. Page 3

4 Installation Checklist Post bracing Perimeter posts over 5' high from ground to deck need bracing. Attach beams to posts Determine the desired deck floor height on the posts. Determine height for securing the top of the beam to the post. Attach joists Space joists 16" on center or 24" on center for tongue and groove planks. Joists are attached to ledger board with joist hangers or by toenailing. Determine where blocking will go and snap a chalk line, but make sure to stagger pieces for ease of nailing. Lay decking Attach boards brushed surface up. Do not butt boards together, ensure a gap of 1/8" minimum on all butt joints. The deck boards can be trimmed after they are installed. Refer to the written Installation Guide for further installation requirements. Railings Railings must be firmly attached to the framing members of the deck. Check for local code restrictions on railings. Stairs Stairs should be at least 3' wide. Check local codes on stair restrictions. Measure the rise and run of the stairs. Multi-level decks When planning a multi-level deck, for aesthetics make one deck larger than the other. Page 4
