Hi friends. :)
My name is win (sometime lose), very new to the forum.
a few knowledge for helping my decking project .:2tsup: I have never done any woodwork before.
I am planning to make a deck on existing pavers (newly laid). the size is about 4.5x5m.
I read in some threads that I can lay the joists directly on pavers and merbau boards on joists. This will not move as it will be attached to the house (via a ledger board). Part of the deck will not be under roof. What i want to know is if it would warp overtime since not any joist is anchored to the ground. if it could, to avoid this what size/ material/ design should i use for timber structure.
Appology if question is stupid or using poor English :D.
thanks
