INSTANT RESULTS, ZERO GUESSWORK
Enter your deck dimensions and component sizes — every result updates in real time. No "calculate" button, no waiting. Change one input and watch the entire layout recalculate instantly.
COMPLETE STRUCTURAL BREAKDOWN
- Stumps — count, spacing, centres, set-out points, height adjustments for sloping ground
- Bearers — count, spacing, connections, single or double configuration, housed option
- Joists — count, spacing, rim joist options, mid-joist centre for breaker boards
- Boards — count, gap calculation, board fit options, first/last board cut widths
VISUAL DECK DIAGRAMS
Switch between a top-down Plan view and a side Profile cross-section. Toggle individual layers (stumps, bearers, joists, boards) on and off. See dimensions, spacing, and diagonal measurements at a glance.
BOARD STAGGER PATTERNS
Visualise ½, ⅓, or ¼ board stagger layouts. See exactly how many boards to purchase, which pieces to cut, how offcuts are reused, and the waste percentage — row by row.
FOOTING CALCULATIONS
Specify footing diameter, depth, and concrete bag size. Get the total concrete volume and exact number of premix bags needed for every stump.
FULL MATERIAL LIST
Linear metres and cubic volume for every component — stumps, bearers, joists, and boards — with a combined total. Plus a complete connection count: bearer-to-stump, joist-to-bearer, board-to-joist, and total screws.
COST ESTIMATION
Enter cost per linear metre and waste percentage for each component. Get a full cost breakdown, cost per square metre, and "cost to add one more" estimates for quick what-if comparisons.
BUILT FOR THE JOB SITE
