It is not recommended to place pedestals directly on loose soil as it may shift. Use a concrete pad, paving slabs, or a compacted gravel base.
These pedestals are adjustable between 344mm and 454mm.
While the weight of the deck often keeps them in place, in high-wind areas or specific structural designs, you may need to anchor the base plates.
Yes, they are designed to support standard decking joists used for composite systems.
The number depends on your joist span and the weight rating of the deck; please consult your decking material manufacturer's installation manual.
Ensure the base surface is fully compacted and level; check that the pedestal is sitting flush on the ground.
Clean any debris or grit from the threads and ensure the weight of the joist is temporarily relieved from the pedestal during adjustment.
To install, place the pedestal on a clean, stable surface such as compacted crushed stone, concrete, or an existing paved area. Position the joist into the cradle head of the pedestal, ensuring it is securely fastened according to the decking system's guidelines. For maintenance, periodically inspect the deck sub-structure to ensure that ground shifting has not caused the pedestals to lose contact with the joists. If you notice any wobbling, simply access the pedestal to readjust the height. Ensure all load requirements of your decking boards are met by calculating the appropriate number of pedestals per square meter.
