Good instruction! just not quite understand, in this example, when u decide the maxium space between posts, u didn't choose the bear2, which has the max loaded dimension 2.09m, can u please tell me the reason?
There is a disconnect between the instructions and the plan. In the plan the piles are at 1.3m centres, not 1.65m that the instructions use for loaded dim calculations. With 1.3m pile centres (along the bearer line) the 140x90 bearers can have a loaded dim of 3.0 Probably used someone else to collate this document, and they really need to watch a newbie try and follow their instructions and then realise its not right, and then fix it up.
Hey Chad, you can read the full guide as there are too many variables to answer that questions: www.mitre10.co.nz/guides-and-advice/guide/how-to-design-a-deck - Cheers
Hey Chad, there are instructions for if you’re building close to the ground, in the PDF. Please read this guide so you can get this right for your deck specs 😊 Cheers, ^James
When do you plan on updating your website to include the guide mentioned in the video? Currently there is only the guide on how to build a deck. Also it might be handy to include a link to it in this videos description when it is available. Thanks.

Any suggestions for building over existing concrete that's sloping away from the house? 3m x 6m. I have brick cladding and height will be as low as legally allowed (by the house) but the land drops 600mm to the farthest point from the house.

They start out talking maximum distance so you dont have to dig so many holes, calculate using 1.65, but in the end actually used the smallest.
You have any NZ extension videos?and how far off the ground can you just hang deck joist on joist hangers on bearers

@@mitre10nz cheers. . If piles is minimum 125mm out the ground am i able to use joist hangers straight to bearers to keep my deck low?

My neighbour is really jealous of my big deck!
His wife is always on my deck!
Is there a specific design app or program to plan a deck with?
Not that we're aware of! Feel free to download the PDF for this video, and it'll provide a guide to get started. ^Cam

Heya, there are quite a few variables for this one. I suggest you talk to a local LBP builder to get some advice on how to tackle the project 👍
How to use height of deck and the space underneath to calculate joist size?
