    Default Structual Pine - dimensions?

    Just a quick query - for a ground level deck - is 90x45 structual pine the right size for the joists?

    That depends on the span between bearers.

    Being a ground level deck I hadn't planned on having bearers?

    Well, something has to hold them up off the ground, so the spacing between whatever that is. Or are you planning on just laying the joists flat on the ground?

    If you are they will be sleepers not bearers and you have issues with treatment.
