Deck Building Codes
Eddie Nixon asks:
What are the building codes in regards to a wooden deck added on to a house?
Answer from Tommy:
It depends on where you live but a good source of infomation which covers most codes is DCA 6 - Prescriptive Residential Deck Construction Guide
FREE DOWNLOAD - PDF 2.5mb 20 pages
Includes guidance on provisions of the International Residential Code (IRC) pertaining to single level residential wood deck construction. Provisions contained in this document that are not included in the IRC are considered good practice recommendations. Download at http://www.awc.org/Codes/dcaindex.html#PostFramePubs
