Frame Inlay Perimeter

What happens here

With the main joists in place, the next step is to precisely define the perimeter of the planned deck inlay. This involves cutting shorter pieces of pressure-treated lumber, often referred to as blocking or infill joists, and securing them perpendicular or parallel between the existing main joists. These pieces are carefully measured and cut to create the desired square or rectangular outline for the inlay feature. This step requires accurate measurements and secure fastening to form a robust boundary for the inlay, ensuring its dimensions are precise.

Goal: Additional joist pieces are cut and installed to define the perimeter of the planned deck inlay.
