In this video i will show you how to frame in a pool deck with treated lumber. This is part one and goes into detail from digging the holes to assembling the outside frame keeping it 1" under the pool cap. I show you how to notch a 4x4 post and how to to use a joist deck tie as an alternative way inplace of notching the posts.
