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
