How to Construct Proper Footings for Your Deck?
A well-constructed deck must have proper footings in order to be stable and secure. Make sure to dig your footing holes deep enough so that they are on undisturbed soil and sit below the deepest point of frost penetration. Once the holes are dug, line the bottoms with gravel for drainage, then pour concrete into the holes. The footing depth in inches divided by eight will tell you how many bags of concrete mix you need.
Are there any good pictures of deck plans?
Deck plans are not easily swapped out from one location to another, as they have to take into account pitch and slope of the terrain, the type of footings, and the requirement for height and handrails. Your local city hall would be a great place to start off your search.
