- Calculate the surface area for your decking Multiply the length (L) of your decking area by the width (W): L x W = Decking Surface Area (DSA) in m2 10 x 6 = 60m2
- Work out the coverage of your deck boards Add your deck board width (DBW) to the expansion gap length (EGL), then add the deck board length (DBL) to the expansion gap width (EGW). Then multiply these numbers. (DBW + EGL) x (DBL + EGW) = Single Board Coverage (SBC) 0.144m + 0.005m = 0.149m 2.4m + 0.003m = 2.403m 0.149 x 2.403 = 0.358m2
- Calculate the number of deck boards you need Multiply the SBC by 1.1 to allow for 10% wastage. Then, divide the DSA by the SBC. DSA / SCB x 1.1 = Total number of boards required 60m2 / 0.358m2 x 1.1 = 184.36 boards – so round up to 185 so you’re not left short.
Lybster
Lybster is a village on the east coastline of Caithness in northern Scotland. It was as soon as a huge herring fishing port, yet has actually decreased recently, as a result of issues in the sector. The Waterlines heritage gallery is located in Lybster Harbour and also supplies information on the background and also geology of Lybster. A small number of crab fishing watercrafts also operate from Lybster Harbour. Lybster pushes the l lth area of the John O'Groats Trail, a long-distance strolling route from Inverness to John O'Groats.
