How to Build a Splash Pool Deck

    Step 3: Attaching Support Frames

    Place the Support Frame directly onto the 4"x4" posts. The outside EDGE of the Support Frame should be positioned at the center of the 4"x4" posts. The front edge of the Support Frame should be 1-2 inches out from the edge of the pool's coping. Using a straight level on two sides or a post level, insure that the 4"x4" post is plumb (vertically level) in both directions before attaching support frame. Secure each Support Frame to the 4"x4" post using two - 2 1/2" deck screws at each post. After attaching, insure that there is an equal distant space between the top of the Support Frame and the bottom of the pool's coping. There should be a gap of the thickness of the decking plus 1/2 inch. The Support Frame may not be perfectly level if the pool is not level. It's better to align the deck with the line of the pool instead of making the deck level. Use the next Support Frame as a guide for the placement of the next row of Dek-Block® piers. Repeat cutting and leveling for the remaining 4"x4" posts, and continue placing Support Frames around the entire pool. Attach each frame to the next using eight - 2 1/2" deck screws from each side of the frame into the other frame. The last Support Frame will need to be cut-to-fit
