I will get to that in a mo Mike.

Now this shot is of the under deck construction. You can see the bearers and the joists (the timber that has the decking nailed to it). Each joist is nailed then triple gripped (metal angles) into place. This provides further strength especially where I have canterlevered the joists over the bearer at the other end. The joists are 4 x2". Overall this construction should be able to take the weight of 4 people easily. It is better to have more strength than not enough.
