How to Build a Shed Floor

Step 6: Position remaining Dek-Block® Piers.

Using the frame as a guide, position the remaining Dek-Block® piers directly beneath the frame using the dimensions provided on the plan. The blocks to the outside of the deck should be 12 inches in from each end.

 

Deckman's Tip

Do not get caught up in the small dimensions. Positioning the blocks do not need to be "exact". There is a lot of "play" in the spacing between the piers. As long as you do not exceed 5 feet between blocks, the deck will be fine. It is fine to have one row spaced at 3 feet 10 inches from the one block and 4 feet 2 inches from the other block. The deck will look better if all the piers are aligned in a straight row.
