What happens here

This project demonstrates the impact of different joist spacing (12 inches on center vs. 16 inches on center) on the deflection and structural integrity of a composite deck board. The process involves setting up a simple support system, applying weight to the board, measuring the resulting deflection, and concluding with a destructive test to highlight potential failure points.
