What happens here
The video begins by showing two individuals actively engaged in constructing the wooden subframe of the deck. This subframe, made from pressure-treated lumber, consists of joists and possibly beams, laid out over a prepared gravel base adjacent to the house. One worker is seen standing and possibly measuring or positioning lumber, while the other is kneeling closer to the house, likely securing the ledger board or attaching joists. This forms the foundational support structure for the entire deck.
Goal: Establish the structural foundation of the deck.

- Impact Driver — Driving screws and fasteners for the subframe
