I hate to say it .....but, knowing what Councils can be like they would want the deck approved via a building permit......but also probably up the engineering on it to allow for the weight of the structure and associated wind loadings it may cause.
Anything 'non standard' would need certification I think. My ob's is pretty large so probably a bit different to a garden shed variety but I heard the horror story the previous owner had trying to get it approved.....apparently even the wheels the roof rolls on needed some engineering approval/drawings done!
