How to build the Deluxe Pool Deck

Step 11: Completing the frame.

Locate and position the remaining Dek-Block® piers that are closest to the existing Splash deck. Measuring down from the Splash deck, measure and cut the 4"x4" posts for these locations as described in Step 2.

Next, measure and cut the angled end board. Secure one end to the the existing end board with 2 1/2" deck screws. For the end near the Splash deck, align the outside edge of the end board with the center of the two connecting frames of the Splash deck. This will ensure proper alignment of the future handrail. A temporary blocking board can be used to hold the angled end board in position until the framing is complete.

Place the 2"x6" support boards on top of the 4"x4" posts and secure to the angled end board with 2 1/2" deck screws. Place the remaining Dek-Block® piers beneath the 2"x6" support boards using the dimensions found on the plan. Cut 4"x4" posts to length and position them between the support board and the Dek-Block® pier. Repeat until all 4"x4" posts are cut and positioned. Secure all support boards and 4"x4" posts using two 2 1/2" deck screws at an angle (toe-screw) from each side.
