Obtain any required permits or zoning variances. Check with local utility companies to make sure deck footings and construction will not disturb or obstruct access to 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 24" 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 3-4-5 method to get a 90 degree angle in one corner. Footing requirements Footingfposthole depth and location is dictated by local codes and by-laws. All rights reserved copyright 02016 DIY Technologies Project ID:332662193 Page 5 i ■ LOW r'U E's- �, DIYTechnologies INSTALLATION CHECKLIST 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 Joists are attached to ledger board with joist hangers or by toenailing. See local building codes for required installation. Determine where blocking will go and snap a chalk line, but make sure to stagger pieces for ease of nailing. Lay decking Attach boards"bark side up"to minimize cupping and warping. The deck boards can be trimmed after they are installed. Railings Railings must be firmly attached to the framing members of the deck. Check local codes and by-laws for requirements on railings. Stairs Check local codes and by-law requirements on stairs. 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.

When cutting or drilling wood, always wear eye protection to prevent injury from flying wood particles 2. When cutting lumber, a fabric breathing mask will help to avoid ingestion of the dust. Wear gloves as the surface is rough and can cause splinters. 3. For outdoor projects, nails and other hardware should be hot-dipped zinc-coated or equally well-protected material to keep them from rusting. 4. To help prevent splitting, drill pilot holes in each piece of lumber before nailing or screwing. 5. Make sure to treat your deck to prolong its lifespan. 6. Before you apply a finish on your deck, test for moisture by sprinkling the surface of a small area of the deck with water. If the droplets bead up, the wood is still wet.Wood that is dry enough for treatment will quickly soak up the water. 7. Deck finishes come in both water and oil based.While oil-based finishes penetrate deeper into the wood, water-based products are easier to clean up and are more forgiving in damp conditions. 8. When applying finish or cleaner to your deck, protect surrounding vegetation by wetting with a hose and covering with plastic. 9. Invest in a pair of kneepads if you are doing floor jobs or working on a deck. 10. Dispose of scraps in the regular trash or take to a landfill -never burn.

Warning:You have prepared a preliminary design of a deck for residential purposes,including the preparation of a preliminary bill of materials and a preliminary materials pricing estimate. Materials pricing estimates do not include labor costs and are subject to change. This preliminary design is NOT intended for use as a final design and may not be sufficient for permit applications. Variations in building codes,specific architectural considerations, and/or site conditions may require changes to the preliminary design.You are responsible for the final structural,code compliance,material usage,and structural safety of this design. Be sure to check and verify the design with your architect,engineer and building inspector. Lowe's does not assume any responsibility for design,engineering,or construction;for the use of installation of materials;or for compliance with any building code or standard of workmanship.You should consult with professionals(including an architect,engineer,licensed contractor,and/or building inspector or code official)concerning the suitability,safety,and legality of this preliminary design,rather than relying on this tool for those functions. Always refer to information on fastener packaging for use with pressure treated lumber. Preferences:Certain assumptions have been made in order to provide an accurate material quote for your deck project.Because local codes and bylaw requirements may vary throughout the country(e.g.,by municipality and state/province),it is imperative that you check with your architect, engineer,licensed contractor,and/or building inspector or code official for compliance with local requirements and building codes.The following building practice assumptions have been made in planning the materials for your project: Footer Depth: 24" Footer Type: Post On Concrete Joist Cantilever: 6 inches Joist Spacing: 16" center to center Spacing Between Deck Planking: 118" Stair Stringers: 10 inches Deck Live Load: 40 psf Deck Dead Load: 10 psf Stairs Live Load: 40 psf Stairs Dead Load: 10 psf Be sure to check and verify the design with your architect,engineer and building inspector. Note:It is recommended that joist that meet on top of beams should be spliced with gussets.The gussets should be 2-by wood the same width at the joist and overlap by 6 inches on each side.These gussets should be held in place with 12 16d galvanized nails. Handling Precautions for Pressure-Treated Wood Disposal.•Dispose of treated wood by ordinary trash collection.Treated wood should not be burned in open fires,stoves,fireplaces,or residential bilers because toxic chemicals may be produced as part of the smoke and ashes.Treated wood from commercial or industrial use(e.g construction sites) must be disposed of in accordance with state and Federal regulations,which may include burning only in commercial or industrial incinerators or boilers. Always refer to information on fastener packaging for use with pressure treated lumber. Operating Conditions.Avoid frequent or prolonged inhalation of sawdust from treated wood.When sawing,sanding and machining treated wood,wear a dust mask.Whenever possible,these operations should be performed outdoors to avoid indoor accumulations of airborne sawdust from treated wood. (Lowe's instore saws are equipped with a vacuum to minimize airborne sawdust). Protection:When power-sawing and machining,wear goggles to protect eyes from flying particles. Clean Thoroughly:Wear gloves when working with the wood.After working with the wood,and before eating,drinking,toileting,and use of tobacco products,wash exposed areas thoroughly. Wash Separately:Because preservatives or sawdust may accumulate on clothes,they should be laundered before reuse.Wash work clothes separately from other household clothing.
