How to build a deck

The deck is split level and measures 6.5m x 7.0m (21' x 23'). It's due to be done in stages. Stage one: The basic deck. Stage two: Planters and Benches around the perimiter. Stage three: an overarching Canopy.The deck should be ready for Easter.I started on Monday afternoon,and intend to have the basic deck finished by Thursday pm.The sub-frame is, for the most part, complete; and I'm now waiting on delivery of the deckboards which are due to arrive tomorrow afternoon.
