Take this into store with you to make sure you get everything in one trip. For this project the following materials and equipment are required:
Positioning of Bearers
he double 150 x 50 H3.2 Radiata bearers on top of T the shaped head pile are to be connected to the pile with two galvanised or stainless steel post-to-bearer ties on each side. NOTE: The exposed area on the head of the pile is trimmed at a 45 degree angle to prevent water from pooling on top.

Lay Decking
hen laying decking boards, start from the furthest W outer edge of the deck and work inwards. reate a 15mm setback from board edge to fascia C plate. Check spacing as you go to ensure boards are square and running true to line. (Tip: Curved boards may be straightened using a suitable pry bar.) utt boards hard up to each other to allow for B shrinkage. he last board against the house may have to be T scribed to fit and reduced in width.

GETTING STARTED
repare a sketch plan outline of your deck with P dimensions, indicating boundaries and existing site features. he design should complement the house - it needs T to be functional and have aesthetic appeal. referably locate it on the warm, sunny side of the P home or facing the view. ave privacy, sun and shelter from prevailing wind H and weather. e compatible with existing landscape, garden B planting and pools. e clear of any sub soil drains and services, (eg B electricity, gas, water, or sewer lines). ave safety features, such as hand rails (required for H decks that are 1 metre or more above ground), nonslip surfaces and adequate bracing. Check ground conditions and contour. pproach the Local Authority or Council to ascertain A whether Resource and/or Building Consent is required before construction starts.

STAY SAFE:
Kiwis love the great outdoors. Even when were at home wed rather be out on the deck. But nothing quite matches the satisfaction of a deck youve built yourself. This guide will show you how to do it. As DIY projects go, a deck may seem like an ambitious project, but taken step-by-step, building a deck is pretty straightforward. These instructions are for a simple, 3.6 metre by 3.6 metre deck, sitting 0.75 metres above the ground, but the same principles apply whether its a bigger area or higher off the ground. With higher decks, consideration needs to be given to bracing and handrails. Usually a deck will be attached to the house on one side and this example will show you how to do that.
heck for any possible infringements near boundaries. C For example, decks less than 1.5 metres above ground and 10 metres square may not need to go through consent procedures. deally, decks are located on houses or buildings that I have ready indoor/outdoor access from living areas. etermine the decks size and area to accommodate D people and furniture. For instance, a deck that is 1.8 metres wide is the absolute minimum width to accommodate a standard table and four chairs.

The use of power tools makes the completion of projects much easier, but appropriate safety equipment when using power tools is strongly recommended. Ear protection, eye wear and sturdy footwear should be considered the minimum requirement when using power tools and always use a residual current device when using electric power tools.

IMPORTANT: BRACING REQUIREMENTS FOR DECKS Any deck that projects more than 2 metres from a building requires bracing. New Zealand Standard 3604 (1999) sets out the requirements, while geographical location also has an impact on the requirements for bracing. If the deck you are planning projects more than 2 metres from the building then it is recommended that additional expert advice be sought from your Local Authority or an appropriately qualified expert.
