I'm in the planning stages of an above ground pool deck using your product. The deck will be roughly 200 sq. ft and be elevated approx 50" above ground level.

Your documentation says the Floating Foundation Deck System has been analyzed for a dead load of 12 psf, and a live load of 40 psf using 2x6 stringers.

My local building code calls for a 60 PSF live load factor and 2x8 stringers.

Can I use 2x8 stringers with your system and will I get the 60 psf rating with them?

For the answer to this question please call the techinal support line at 1-800-664-2705.
