10 the installation fitting instructions User s guide All our products must be installed according to the regulations of the Guide for the Design of Wooden Terraces (published by the CTBA and the Federation of Wood). The information and technical solutions shown here are extracts from the Guide and are intended primarily for external constructions around houses (patios, paths, surrounds of private swimming pools). Storage: store the ideck floor boards in their original packaging, Placement on a concrete or tilted floor: the support beams must be fixed preferably in a well ventilated, roofed over space avoid direct bright into the ground base to ensure a secure foundation we recommend sunlight placing the beams in such a way that they are parallel to the direction of the drainage Treating the boards prior to installation: thoroughly rinse the boards with water before installing in order to avoid rainwater causing excessive tannin Placement on a slanted ground base: it is advisable to use the adjustable leakage synthetic support elements (± 8m2), which also need to be fixed into the ground base Tools: drill, screwdriver, crosscut saw, belt sander, tightening screws, heel iron, square, gluing clamp, chalk line Placement on natural soil: when necessary, apply a stabilized and levelled sand or gravel layer place concrete tiles 50 cm apart to provide Ground base preparation: make sure the ground base is stable, solid and sufficient support and fixture for the support beams verify the height smooth a slant of approximately 1 cm/running metre will provide the and slant, cover with a rootcloth and fix the support beams into the correct water drainage to prevent weeds from growing, it is advisable concrete tiles to cover with a root cloth tropical hardwood contains elements/tannic acids (e.g. oak-wood) that increase the boards resistance however, rain Freestanding terrace: consult your architect/contractor, who will be able to can also cause them to wash out in the form of a brown liquid for this provide you with the correct information, adapted to your requirements reason you must avoid direct, unprotected contact with plastered and/or To order m2: to install in a random sequence, allow 5 to 10 % more other walls and floors foil protection is recommended boards compared to the surface area to be covered to install under an angle of 45, with corners or irregular joints, allow 15 to 20 % more The support construction: the support beams must be fixed into the boards compared to the surface area to be covered ground base to ensure a secure foundation the support beams must be of the same kind of tropical hardwood as the visible boards attention: For your comfort the support beams must be at least twice the thickness of the boards To solve the rare occurence of splinters, we advise, once the installation (e.g. for boards of 21 x 145 mm, use support beams of at least 42 x 70 is finished, that you douse the deck with water (or wait until after the mm) overall a width of 50 mm will suffice, but in places where two ends first rainfall) and, once dry, sandpaper the surface. This will assist in of the boards are to be joined together, you will need a width of 70 mm breaking the heads of any splinters which may occur. Natural oxidation during alignment, ensure that the correct distance between beams is due to ultraviaolet light will cause the decking to grey (particularly around maintained: the distance depends on the strength and width of the boards swimming pools). We take no responsibility with regard to accidents (see graph) regarding slipping. Board Thickness mm Board Width 90 mm 120 mm 145 mm source: WTCB Bearer Distance cm For standard ideck e r t u Installing with visible screws: please pay attention to the direction of the wood fibres and slight colour variations prior to placement place all boards in the same direction Space between boards: the boards will expand and contract depending on changing seasonal temperatures and the humidity in the air before commencing, it is recommended that the degree of humidity in the boards should be checked bearing this in mind, installation of the boards must comply with the following rules: the distance between every individual board must be 5 to 10 mm this expansion joint provides room for the wood to breath (expand and shrink) according to the weather, without causing damage to the decked floor area in the event that the decking area is placed against a wall or another fixed element, you need to provide a joint of at least 10 mm between the boards and the wall and/or fixed element Joining the board ends: each board end should rest on a support beam and be screwed down by, at least, 2 screws to limit movement of the wood Predrilling: use a chalk line to get the correct alignment and pre-drill the screw holes (e.g. if your screw is 6 mm, predrill using a 5 mm drill) the distance between the screw hole and the board end should be maximum 5-7 cm (and minimum 2 cm) in order to prevent any protuberance at the ends use exclusively stainless steel screws for an impeccable and lasting result use 2 screws for every board with a length of at least twice the board s width Screws: it is recommended to use inox screws, and to insert them on a slow setting speed into the wood the screw s head should be level with the board s surface, so that no screw heads are left protruding Finishing up: you can apply a 45 slant on the board ends using a manual or electric plane or a belt sander you can also use a U-end profile from our collection For the iclip system e t i Installing with iclip : place the rounded finishing profile on the bearers, and screw to the bearer screw a clip to every bearer (pre-drill the bearer with 3.5 mm drill) slide the plank onto the clip, a rubber hammer and a piece of wood can be used to assist this process every butt must be secured with a clip, where you have two butts on each side, use a clip on each one please use bearers of 42 x 70 mm installed flat in this process continue this until your decking area is finished the last piece can be a plank or the rounded finishing profile enjoy your decking for many years For the ideck by Twinson e t i u expansion gap r u o r u o 5 a 5 b To start your terrace you use the aluminium F-profile, which you screw on to the bearer slide in an ideck by Twinson board and screw an iclip on every beam to fasten the first plank slide the next plank onto the clip, a rubber hammer and a piece of wood can be used to assist this process continue this until your terrace is finished. In the area of butt joints ensure enough bearing surface by using double beams bolted together every butt must be secured with a clip, where you have 2 butts, one each side, use a clip on each one, 3 mm/meter expansion gap has to be between the joint butts and next to a fix structure to finish your terrace we advise you to use the aluminium F-profile. If a dilatation of at least 3mm/m cannot be guaranteed then you need to subdivide the planks into different modules and/or use the alu F profile. More info: ifix installation with plugs P 120 P 100 e t i 1 r u 3 4 Please read the instructions for standard ideck first as these apply also to the installation with the plugs. Before you start please make sure that all the boards are put down on you deck in the final position. This way you can easily draw straight lines to pre drill the boards. A special drill is provided in the ifix plug box to pre drill the wholes for the plugs. The size of this special drill is exactly the same as the plugs. Once the wholes for the plugs are made, you pre drill the board and bearer with a drill of 4mm diameter, to be used with the screws you find in the box. Now you can start to fix the boards with the provided screws and screw bit. Once the entire deck is done, you can put the plugs in the predrilled holes. A drop of white wood glue (D4) in every hole so the plug is glued to the board. Any excess of glue needs to be removed immediately with a clean cloth. Make sure that the conical part of the plugs is the downside. (a hammer may be used) Once all the plugs are in place, you can if needed use a belt sander to sand your deck and plugs to obtain a superb result. 2
