ND BG - BLACK ONLY BEST PRACTICES FOR EDGE FASTENING V2 Recommendations by Board 100 V2 PRESSURE TREATED PVC & COMPOSITE DECKING Twisting, warping, cupping, and splitting are expected performance attributes with pressure treated decking in its wet/green state. Following the guidelines presented will reduce, but not eliminate, the normal behavior of pressure treated deck boards. Air temperature variation results in the expansion and contraction of various boards, including PVC and composite.
BEST PRACTICES FOR EDGE FASTENING Recommendations by Board 96 94 CAPPED COMPOSITE Air temperature variation results in the expansion and contraction of various boards, including capped composite. Following the guidelines presented will ensure the best installation and reduce problems associated with board movement. • Board Spacing: Always review and follow your deck manufacturer’s gap and spacing requirements for deck board installation. These requirements vary depending on the specific board material.
ND BG - BLACK ONLY SPECIAL CASES - CLIP FASTENING Installing at Butt Joints ALWAYS INSTALL A DOUBLE JOIST AT THE BUTT JOINTS Use a separate clip to secure each board end. Please follow your deck board manufacturer’s instructions for end-toend board gapping distance to allow for expansion and contraction at this joint. V2 EDGE CLIPS 1 2 REMOVE LEGS ON EDGE CLIP FASTEN SCREWS You will need 4 clips for each butt joint. Remove the legs of the Clip so that they can sit side-by-side on the double joists.
SPECIAL CASES - CLIP FASTENING Replacing Boards If Needed 961 94 2 3 BACK OUT SCREWS PULL UP BOARD LAY NEW DECK BOARD Back out all of the screws from the joist on both sides of the board. Pull up on the board to easily remove it. Clean away any clips remaining on the joists and lay the new deck board in position without any clips in place. 4 5 6 REMOVE LEGS OR WINGS SLIDE CLIPS DOWN GROOVE FASTEN AT EACH JOIST Count the number of clips needed and snap off the legs or wings on each clip.
