  • Will 38x19 timber in ~900mm lengths work for a deck or will I experience sagageddon?
    Sagulator says joists at 300mm centres is acceptable, 450mm centres is borderline.

  • Is there a calculator?
    I’m about to layout for a little 3.5 x 2.1m deck at Bird Villas.
    I’ve got some 100 x 25 iroko left over from a job so I reckon I can put the joists on pretty wide centres but ...ideally I’d like 550

    There’s also a manhole cover I’ll need to frame around 🙄

    19mm seems pretty thin - the length doesn’t really matter but the joists will need to be pretty close together.
