Wheel Deck Decking

 20 Feb 22:

SUPER SANDY towed HUEY to pick up decking for the wheel deck. Our new tiedown straps worked great, easy and fast to use.


All of the 2x6 deck joists were blocked level and fit in today, time consuming as we worked to incorporate the 5x8 table top, which was made from 2x4s. We added a ramp and SMEDLEY took part in static load testing. 




The top of the posts are wrapped with 2x6 pressure treated pine. Fastened with Timberlok screws, much faster and just as strong as lag screws.


The scuppernong grape plants that we saved from construction bulldozers will climb up the 2 center posts, and a wisteria that we saved from Florida is on the right side post.
