Zoning Board Battle: My fight to build a deck!

What happens here

The deck's sub-structure is further developed by adding more joists and cross-bracing to create a sturdy foundation. A key design element, a curved edge, is incorporated into the frame, which requires careful measurement and custom cutting of the lumber pieces. The structure is elevated slightly from the ground, supported by blocks or short posts to maintain levelness and airflow.

Goal: Build a sturdy and aesthetically pleasing deck sub-frame with a curved design

Tools and materials

  • Circular Saw DeWalt — Cutting lumber, especially for curved sections
  • Cordless Drill DeWalt — Fastening lumber with screws
  • Measuring Tape — Accurate measurements
  • Pencil — Marking cuts
  • Pressure-Treated Lumber — Constructing joists, cross-bracing, and curved frame elements
  • Wood Screws — Securing all wooden components
