Design
We visited Lowe’s and asked them to draw us up the plans for a deck. A deck 20 feet long, 4 feet wide, with no middle supports. They gave some nice detailed plans, a list of materials and a cost list. Too bad it was all unworkable. The individual using the CAD program lacked experience, the program insisted on putting in supports every 10 feet, and he said just ignore the support in the middle. The plans called for a single 20 foot long 2 x 10 and obviously that would not be substantial enough to be safe. At the right are the plans they drew up for us. More information click here
