Hi all, I'm about to move on to stage 3 of my current garden project and install a deck area where I've recently build a shed and fenced area. My deck will be spanning an old concreted area and a soil area - I've research on the site around various aspects of the deck (from gaps between joists etc) but what I'd like to get some advice on is the minimum thickness of the joist themselves.
For reasons relating to my shed door (and not wanting to cut it down) I need to keep the deck as low as possible so would ideally like a thin joist but how thin can I go ?
