Deck frame materials

All framing materials should be rated for below or ground contact. If you need to bury wood in soil, Allweather Wood™ Pressure Treated structural timbers and dimension lumber are ideal for ground contact. We carry 2x4s through 2x12s, 4x4s through 4x12s, and 6x6s in this CA-C treated wood.

Simpson offer a variety of special coated hangers to connect your frame together with ease. Treated lumber with higher chemical content for ground contact with actual retention levels greater than 0.40 pcf for ACQ, 0.34 pcf for MCQ, Tip: use ACQ-approved fasteners or Vycor's Deck Protector to protect metals from rusting.
0.21 pcf for CA-B, 0.15 pcf for CA-C and MCA, or 0.14 pcf for uCA-C require the use of stainless-steel products for fastening. When attaching the deck to your house, use lag screws or Fastenmaster Ledgerloks. We also recommend using concrete blocks, either 8", 12", or 18", underneath your deck supports to allow for easier leveling and less digging.
