Are there any books available giving instructions on how to build decks?
Yes, many instruction books are available at libraries, bookstores, lumber yards, and building supply stores. Keep in mind that these books are generic in manner, and may not always reflect current or local codes. This information material is intended to cover the most common questions asked in deck construction. Because each deck may have its own peculiarities, this information will not coverall situations, nor is it intended to cover all codes and regulations governing construction. The Typical Deck Details drawings (PDF) are intended to illustrate the types of drawings needed for permits, and indicate a typical method of deck construction. Other construction methods may be used if applicable regulations are followed. This information may be updated periodically to reflect changes in the code and regulations.
