3 Installation Tips and Requirements CellBoard products can be worked with ordinary woodworking tools such as: Circular Saw Crosscut Mitre Saw Carpenters Square Cordless Drill Level & Chalk Line Tape Measure NOTE: To ensure long- term performance, we recommend that a professional trade person carry out the installation. The installation MUST be carried out in accordance with these instructions including the use of all trims and accessories. Site storage & Product Handling CellBoard boards should not be stored in the open or covered or wrapped with plastic sheet. CellBoard are a finished product, do not dump or drop when loading or unloading. Always handle with care. CellBoard boards should be stored under cover and protected from the elements (including direct sunlight and rain) until ready to install. Keep packs strapped until ready to install. When removing CellBoard boards from the pack, do not slide boards against each other, lift the boards and set them down carefully. CellBoard boards should be unpacked and stored undercover on a dry and flat surface supported at max 450mm centres. CellBoard boards should be carried on their edge for better support. When handling CellBoard boards take care to avoid scratches, nicks and other damage to the boards. Thermal movement Any wood based products will expand and contract with changes in temperature. The amount of expansion varies according to the amount of change in temperature. Although thermal movements are reversible, these movements due to temperature change may vary by up to 1.5mm per meter during the installation process. CellBoard boards that have been exposed to direct sun for several hours, prior to installation will have expanded more than boards left in the shade. It is important to maintain an average consistent temperature for all boards as they are being installed. Avoid installing in full sun if ambient temperature is above 30 C. However if this cannot be avoided ensure the boards are kept out of the sun until installed to limit the boards expansion prior to installation. CellBoard products can tolerate a temperature range from -20 C to +65 C. If the product is to be used in an environment outside of this temperature range, please consult CellBoard. Please bear in mind that: UNDER COVER Screws must be minimum 15mm but maximum 25mm away from board edges (unless noted otherwise) CellBoard products must not be used for any structural purpose. When exposed to direct sunlight, surface temperature may be significantly hotter than ambient temperature. 450mm CTRS 450mm CTRS 3

4 Framing Construction Requirements Screws CellBoard decking may be fixed to seasoned timber joists or to a proprietary structural system. Joist spacing for CellBoard decking is nominally set at 400mm centres max for residential and 350mm centres max for commercial applications in urban and non- cyclonic wind load areas. For higher wind-load areas reducing joists may be required. All boards must span across a minimum of 3 joists. As with all decking products the adequacy of a proposed installation should always be checked by a qualified engineer. Screws must comply with AS 3566 Self Drilling Screws for the Building and Construction Industries. Screws must have a minimum Class 3 corrosion resistance, suitable for external applications in mild, moderate industrial and marine environments and Class 4 or stainless steel for severe environments. Screws with class 1 or 2 corrosion resistance may be used for internal use depending on the individual application. Joists must have a face not less than 45mm for timber and 38 mm for steel. Where butt joints occur, double joists must be set. Wafer Head Countersunk Head Timber Framing Decking/ Type 17 Self-drilling Self-tapping The joints between posts, bearers and joists need to be able to transfer load efficiently through the structure, refer to AS1684 for design of these elements. It is important to use adequately seasoned timber to minimise shrinkage and associated building movement which may damage the decking system. Steel Framing Steel framing must comply with AS/NZS 4600: Cold- Formed Steel Structure or AS 3623: Domestic Metal Framing. Where steel framing members are specified, use only corrosion resistant galvanized steel framing. Specific instructions for fixing to steel frames are included where appropriate. 4

5 Joist Spacing and Loading Dimensinos Table: Joist or batten spacing for InnoDeck is nominally set at maximum 400mm centres for residential and 350mm centres for commercial. Uniformly Distributed Load (kpa) Concentrated Load (kn) Allowable long term uniformly distributed load kpa, is limited by the allowable bending strength of the InnoDeck and should not exceed the loads per support span, as shown in the table below. Description Millimetres a min dis. to solid structure 3mm b max joist centres 350mm Commercial 400mm Residential c min ground clearance 50mm d min dis. to sold structure at board end 3mm The allowable concentrated live load - kn, is limited by the deflection of the InnoDeck between the supporting joists, and should not exceed the maximum loads, as shown in table. Refer AS/NZS section 3 d a DOUBLE JOIST AT ALL BUTT JOINTS (REFER DETAIL BELOW) b c DOUBLE JOISTS MUST BE BOLTED TOGETHER AS SHOWN USING M10 NUT AND BOLT WITH FLAT WASHERS 30 Note: - Bolts to be Max 600mm CTRS with a Minimum of 2 bolts used. - Position bolts so as to ensure no obstruction to board screws. 5

Cut first board to required length Drill 4.5mm diameter clearance holes for face fixing screws along starting edge of board in alignment with the centre line of the joists. Slide aluminuium clips into the groove on the opposite side of the board to where the holes were drilled. Align clips with the centre line of the joist then pre-drill and screw from underneath. To make screw heads beneath the board surface, needs to drill screw holes onto the board sides surface first before fixing onto the joists. The screw holes could be made from a two-step drilling process: i) using a small drilling heals (similar Dia. as the fixing screw) to first drill a through hole at the fixing point; ii) use a larger drilling head (similar Dia. as the screw head) drilling at the same through hole but only 5~10mm depth. 6

Screw the first board down onto the structure as indicated above. 7

Cut board to required length. 8. Slide aluminuium clips into the groove on the opposite side of the board to where the holes were drilled. Align clips with the centre line of the joist then pre-drill and screw from underneath. Ensure Deck is pre-drilled using a φ2.5mm drill bit at approximately 15mm deep. Take care not to break through the surface of the board. 8

Cut last board to length and rip down in width if required. 13. Drill clearance holes φ4.5mm diameter 25-35mm from the outside edge of board in alignment with joist centres. 14. Lay last board on joists and tap the board edge with a soft hammer and a soft timber block until full engagement with clips is achieved. 15. Screw the last board to joist through φ4.5mm clearance holes using screws as indicated in table shown at step 2. 11

12 Step 7 - Finishing Option Fascia If desired a fascia board can be added around the perimetre of the deck. We recommend the following methodology: 1. Using a router or power saw, rebate the decking board as indicated along entire length to create a fascia Board Screw fascia boards to framing using 8g x 65mm CSK Decking Screws at max 450mm CTRS. Decking and fascia boards must be pre-drilled with φ4.5mm drill bit. 13mm Board Overhand 10mm Board overhand 2mm Gap 40 JOIST 65 12

13 Step 8 - Protection Remember - InnoDeck is a pre-finished product so it must be protected during and after the installation process. CellBoard recommend the following precaution to avoid damage and/or scratching: 1. Limit construction foot traffic over boards when possible during construction; 2. Anyone walking over deck during or after construction should ensure their boots are clean of dirt, sand, etc and without objects such as stones or glass wedged in the soles; 3. Sweep deck clean and cover with corflute once installation is completed if trafic over deck cannot be avoided throughout the remainder of the construction period. ENSURE CLEAN BOOTS ONLY LIMIT FOOT TRAFFIC PROTECT 13
