All tagged deck build
For any large project like this you always have to start with a plan. Simpson Strong-Tie has some AWESOME deck designer software on there website that I have used when I built my first deck. It helps with knowing how many footers you need, what hardware to use and can give you plans to submit for permit approval if it is needed. You can check it out here.
So we started with Simpson Strong-Tie’s Deck Planner Software. It is a free program available to everyone on their website. You create a log-in and then start designing and it is super easy to use. It prompts you for the shape, size, if its going to be freestanding or not, type of material you are going to use, style of railing, do you want/need stairs etc.
