The overhang on a deck is commonly referred to as a "cantilever." This structure extends beyond the support beams or posts, providing additional space and aesthetic appeal. Cantilevers are often used in deck designs to create shaded areas or to enhance the visual dimension of the deck. Proper engineering is essential to ensure safety and stability.

Support Your Deck Overhangs?

If you have a deck that is up high, on the second floor, there will likely be an overhang. You need to make sure that you use plans for deck overhangs that include strong supports. If the deck is not entirely on the roof of the floor below it, these supports are all that will keep people safe. Do not try to use the wrong kind of a plan if you are building up high.
