Decking Joists

The deck joist size that you require will depend on your project size, we have multiple length options in stock and available for delivery from any of our branches. When planning your decking joist spacing, a good rule of thumb for timber decking is 450mm centres (or 400mm centres is using a chevron pattern), and 400mm centres for composite decking (or 300mm centres if using a chevron pattern).

What wood to use for deck joists?
C16 or C24 timber is ideal for decking joists. It is structural graded and when well put together will keep the decking strong and stable.
