Decks must be constructed in strict conformance with the details contained herein. If a permit is required, a copy of this deck detail package must be on the job site and available to the inspector during the inspection process. This guide is intended to help provide typical information needed for constructing a deck; however,you will need to have at least some understanding of typical construction practices in order to complete the project. Typical Deck Details revised 2/08 Page 1 of 27 INTRODUCTION These plans and details are provided to assist you in your deck construction, for obtaining a building permit (when required), or simply to aid you in constructing a deck that does not require a permit. Before proceeding, always check with your local jurisdiction for land use, zoning, or other regulations that may affect your project. When Do I Need A Permit For A Deck? A building permit is required for all decks that are 30 inches or more above grade. A building permit is not required for decks that are less than 30 inches above the ground and not less than 3 feet from a property line. How Do I Use The Plans To Get A Permit? If you need a building permit for your deck, you will need to submit plans of sufficient detail to your local building department to indicate what you want to build. If you are not sure how to draw plans, these plans can be submitted to your local building department for the permit. You will, however, be required to follow the plans and details as provided without any deviation. One thing that will be needed is a site plan that shows an outline of your property (property lines), the house, and outline of where you will be locating the deck and how it will appear. Be sure to indicate any additional existing accessory buildings or structures (shed, pool, retaining walls, etc.). The site plans will need to be drawn to an acceptable scale (you may need to contact your local building department for this), but usually a scale of 118th or 114th of an inch equal to one foot or similar is acceptable. Fill out a building permit application, and submit these plans (along with your site plan). After the plans are reviewed and approved, a permit to construct your deck will be issued (some jurisdictions may even be able to review and approve your plans at the counter, so you can leave with a permit the same day). Consult your local city/county jurisdiction for the number of sets of plans required. For information on contacting your local building departments, visit www.BCD.Oregon.gov, and click on Jurisdictions. How Big Do The Footings, Beams, And Joists Need To Be? The detail in these plans will help you determine how big the footings, beams, joists, posts, and ledgers need to be. Much of it depends on the size of the deck, what size beams and joists you want to use, and how far apart you want to place the beams, posts, and footings. General Notes 1. All lumber shall be grade #2 Douglas-Fir, Hem-Fir, or better and shall be pressure treated (to resist insect and dry rot) in accordance with American Wood-Preservers' Association Standards (Category). Decking material of redwood or cedar does not require pressure treatment as it has a natural resistance to decay. The pressure- treatment category identified below will be identified on the lumber. The level of treatment depends on the use as follows: a. Decking material, railings, joists, and beams must be treated to a Category UC3B. b. Posts and other woods located on, in, or in contact with the ground must be a Category UC4B. c. Any wood less than six inches above the ground or in contact with concrete must be a Category UC4A. Typical Deck Details revised 2/08 Page 2 of 27 2. The level of preservative treatment is noted on the tags fixed to the ends of the wood members. Remember, any time you make a cut, treat the cut end of the wood with a paint-on preservative. Cut ends expose the inner untreated wood to potential moisture and insect damage. 3. All nails shall be "common" or"box" galvanized. It is recommended that "common" nails be used. They have a thicker shank and are stronger than "box" nails. 4. New pressure treatment methods use chemicals that will prematurely corrode standard fasteners, hardware, and flashing when in contact with pressure treated lumber; and as a result, fastener and hardware requirements have changed. Note the following: a. All screws and nails shall be hot-dipped galvanized or stainless steel. b. All hardware (joist hangers, cast-in-place post anchors, etc.) shall be galvanized with 1.85 oz/sf of zinc (G-185 coating) or shall be stainless steel. Look for products such as "Zmax" from Simpson Strong-Tie or"Triple Zinc" from USP. 5. Decks constructed according to this handout are not designed to support spas or hot tubs. Installation of spas or hot tubs will require additional structural supports. 6. Decks shall not be attached to house overhangs, bay windows, brick veneers, or chimneys. 7. Deck designs that deviate from the conditions of this handout will require a specific plan submission and may require engineering. 8. Inspections: a. A footing, framing, and a final inspection are required on all decks. b. Footing inspections are required PRIOR to the placement of concrete. c. Framing and final inspections may be combined if all portions of the deck framing and mechanical attachments are at least four feet above grade. d. It is the responsibility of the permit holder or the permit holder's representative to notify the city/county who issued the permit when stages of construction are reached that require an inspection. For information on contacting your local building departments, visit www.BCD.Oregon.gov and click on "Jurisdictions." 9. All decking material shall be composed of 2x4, 2x6, or five quarter ("5/4") boards. Attach decking to each joist with two 10d nails or two #8 screws. Decking may be placed from an angle perpendicular to the joists to an angle of 45 degrees to the joists. Decking must have a span length such that each board bears on a minimum of two joists. 10.Plastic or composite decking products may be used as a substitute for conventional wood decking, but installation and span lengths of the substituted material must be in strict conformance with the product listing and the manufacturer's installation instructions. Copies of the manufacturer's installation instructions must be submitted with this handout and permit application. Typical Deck Details revised 2/08 Page 3 of 27 11.The sizing for footings, posts, beams, and joists are only to be used in areas (counties) that have an elevation at or below that indicated in Table 1. Areas above those indicated in Table 1 need to consult their local jurisdictions for snow loading to • determine if the area is subject to snow loads in excess of 40 pounds per square foot. If the snow loads exceed 40 pounds per square foot, this document cannot be used. 12. Footings for decks constructed according to this handout shall not be placed on ground with a slope greater than 2 horizontal for every 1 vertical. 13. Decks that are greater than six feet in width and attached to the house with doors, windows or openings below must check the to verify the existing headers over those openings can support the additional load added by the deck. Check with your local jurisdiction for the Oregon Residential Code table to verify. Table 1 Snow Load (Maximum Elevation for Counties with a Snow Load of 40 psf or Less) Maximum elevation 750 feet: Benton, Clatsop, Columbia, Coos, Curry, Lincoln, Polk, Tillamook, Washington, Yamhill Maximum elevation 900 feet: Clackamas, Marion, Lane, Multnomah Maximum elevation 1,000 feet: Linn Maximum elevation 2,000 feet: Douglas, Josephine, Sherman, Wasco Maximum elevation 3,000 feet: Baker, Gilliam, Morrow, Umatilla, Union, Wallowa Maximum elevation 4,000 feet: Crook, Deschutes, Grant, Harney, Jefferson, Klamath, Lake, Malheur, Wheeler Cannot be used in Hood River County (minimum 50 psf snow load) Getting Started To effectively use the information contained in this document, you will need to do the following: 1. Determine if your deck requires a permit. Note: even if a permit is not required, zoning regulations (setbacks) and public utility easement restrictions are still applicable. Before proceeding, always check with your local jurisdiction for land use, zoning, or other regulations that may affect your proiect. 2. Determine where your property lines are located and what setbacks your jurisdiction requires from the property line to the edge of the deck. 3. Determine if you have any public easements on your property and whether or not the deck can be constructed over the easement, if applicable (in most cases, you cannot build over a public easement). Typical Deck Details revised 2/08 Page 4 of 27 4. Determine how big and what configuration you want your deck. Note: The drawings contained in this document may indicate square or rectangular configurations; however, configurations can be diamond, trapezoidal, or other shapes as long as the longest spans are used to determine beam, joist, and footing sizes. The deck can have up to a two-foot maximum joist and/or beam overhang. See Figures 1, 2, and 3. Beams must be support on each end by a post and cannot be supported with beam hangers off the house. (Beams are identified as item "A", posts as item "B", joists as item "C," and footings as item "D.") It is recommended that you first determine the joist span "C," and then note what beam and footing sizes you will need. BEAM, JOIST, AND FOOTING SIZES The span of a joist is measured from the centerline of bearing at one end of the joist to the centerline of bearing at the other and does not include overhangs. Maximum joist span lengths are noted in Tables 2 and 3. See Figures 1 and 2 for joist span types. -- OPTIONAL OVERHANG , _-- --- BLOCKING - -- - – B --.---�.._- _------ __.--_-_ -__ I I 2'-0-- --- , JOIST SPAN _ 'MAX "MIN SPAN =6'-0""WITH OVERHANG'S Figure 1 -Joist Span—Deck Attached At House — OPTIONAL OVERHANG --- r" - B=LOCKING j 1 II . r�---- A �r } c 43 - B 7 -- JOIST SPAN 7-0" MAX MIN SPAN - 6-0 WITH OVERHANG MAX Figure 2-Joist Span-Free-Standing Deck Typical Deck ,-- OPTIONAL pV_Rr.;NG age 5 of 27 5. Tables 2 and 3 provide you with the information to determine how big the footings, beams, and joists need to be. The size will depend on how big the deck will be and how many footings and posts are going to be used; how far the beam(s) will span from post-to-post (or ledger); and how far the joist will span from beam-to-beam. To start with, contact your local jurisdiction to determine what the assumed soil bearing value is for your area. This document has footing details for soils that can support between 1,000 to 1,500 pounds per square foot (psf) (See Table 2) and soils that can support over 1,500 pounds per square foot (psf) (See Table 3). If you have soil bearing of less that 1,000 psf, you will need to consult with your local jurisdiction. Note: The footing details are based on native soil and not soil that has been deposited on your property (fill) in depths greater than 12 inches. The footing details require a footing that is a minimum of 18 inches in height so the bottom can be located a minimum of 12 inches below the finished grade and extend six inches above the finished grade. If you have fill material that is greater than 12 inches, your footing will need to extend through the fill to native soil. The footing will need to extend below the finished grade due to the frost depth for your county. See Table 4 to determine this depth. Footings for freestanding decks (those not attached to the house) are not required to be placed below the frost line. Footings for freestanding decks may reduce the footing thickness to a minimum of eight inches.

Note: This document cannot be used with masonry walls. 8. See Figures 14 to 36 for bracing, connection, built-up beam, footing, guardrail, handrail and stairway details. POST SIZES Post sizes are 4x4 minimum for decks six feet or less above the ground and 4x6 for decks over six feet above the ground. Decks with posts over ten feet above the ground cannot be used and require an engineered design. Use a minimum 4x6 post under all beam splices. LEDGER ATTACHMENT REQUIREMENTS General: There are several methods for attaching a ledger board to the house. How it is attached depends on how the house is constructed and where the ledger will be attached. Ledger board attachments to the existing exterior wall shall be constructed in accordance with Figures 5 through 7. When attachments are made to the existing house band board, it shall be capable of supporting the new deck. If this cannot be verified or conditions at the existing house differ from the details herein, then a free- standing deck is required (See section on Free-Standing Decks.). You must verify the existing conditions in the field prior to applying for a building permit. Compliance with all the requirements herein is critical to ensure the structural stability of your deck. Siding and Flashing: Siding or the exterior finish system must be removed prior to the installation of the ledger board. Flashing is required at any ledger board connection to a wall of wood-framed construction and shall be composed of copper (attached using copper nails), stainless steel, UV-resistant plastic, or galvanized steel coated with 1.85 oz/sf of zinc (G-185 coating). Manufactured Wood Joist: The term "MWJ" denotes manufactured t&J wood "I"joists. See Figure 4. Examples of manufactured wood joists are TJI, GPI, and LPI. Older homes constructed with MWJs may only include a plywood band board, while some newer homes may have 1'/ - inch manufactured wood rim joists. In these cases, a freestanding deck �,'I" or a full plan submission is required. 9 q Figure 4: MWJ Profile " Typical Deck Details revised 2/08 Page 11 of 27 EXTERIOR SHEATHNG 41 CONT FLASHING W/DRIP EDGE BEHIND BUILDING EXISTING WALL PAPER OR WATERPROOF MEMBRANE EXISTING 2X DECKING OVER RIM(BAND) .-'" , DECK JOIST N:iiiiiira b.:77.d b.-7%qt ii.-7 7— Mil m 2X FLR JOIST I I 2X LEDGER EXISTING WAU.
