Hi All,
My brother wants to move his hot tub onto his deck. The deck is 2×6 fir on 2×8 fir joists 16″ oc. We calculated a ton of weight when the tub is full. I know the deck needs reinforcing, but I don’t know how much. Can anyone help us out?
Cheers!
Freestanding with boxed stairs, this small deck is full of ideas for a long-lasting entry that will look great for years to come.
