1. Research deck design and construction. Alw
ays make sure to check local
building codes prior to starting your deck project.
2. Establish the deck location. Check for objects such as vents, m
eters, air conditioners, plum
bing fixtures, etc. that may im
pact deck design and/or construction.
3. D
etermine how
the deck will be supported. Establish ledger board,
footing, post, beam, joist, bridging, stair, guard rail and handrail locations.
4. Confirm
footing locations. If screw or concrete piles are planned, have all
underground utilities located.
5. Confirm
the staircase design. Calculate the number of steps from
the finished deck surface to the ground, as w
ell as the distance the treads will
project outward from
the deck.
6. M
ake a “Site Plan” drawing. Show
the property lines, house and deck. Include the lot dim
ensions, overall deck dimensions and distance betw
een the deck and property lines in all directions.
7. M
ake a scaled “Plan View
” drawing. Show
all structural components of
the deck from a top-dow
n perspective. Include dimensions.
8. M
ake a scaled “Front Elevation” drawing. Show
the structural com
ponents of the deck from a straight-on, front-view
perspective. Include the dim
ensions.
9. D
evelop a materials list or take your deck plan to your local Co-op
Hom
e Centre for recomm
ended materials and a price quote.
10. Secure a building permit. Your draw
ings and material list w
ill be required.
