The ground is relatively flat and did not require expensive levelling
or other adjustments. So we were able to build the deck joists of 45x65mm squared
timber for the deck framework directly on the concrete blocks.

The nuts and bolts while building the deck substructure is precision
work. If the squares are not exactly ...
|
... the will be deck
unstable. Starting with the ligning the corner of the house with the first
timber construction joists.
|
The wood deck
framing with angle connectors and stainless steel screws
|
|
  
|
|
Here are how to fix
a lot of screws, a screwdriver with interchangeable battery is very helpful
|
The longitudinal joists
should spaced up to 500 mm distance. Use a spacer to provide equal spacings
|
At the heavy trafic
and busy entrance to the living room lay an additional support joist
|
|
  
|
|
The wood construction
joists are connected with each other in length and screwed on with metal connecting
plates
|
Lay the deck frame
work with a 1-2% slope away from the house, so that rain water can drain
|
Remove the bevel
angle with the bevel. Miter saw to adjust accordingly
|
|

|
|
The decking
framework must lie flat on the concrete blocks. Always check with a spirit
level
