Construction plan - Decking System with Concrete Kerbstone

Product catalog summary
Planning Principles
The document outlines essential planning principles for constructing a decking system using concrete kerbstones. It emphasizes creating a soil formation level larger than the decking with a 4% slope to prevent waterlogging. A stable, frost-resistant gravel or crushed stone bed with a 2% slope is recommended. Construction beams should be laid without filling the cavities between them, and megawood® decking boards should avoid ground contact.
Decking Board Assembly
This section highlights the intentional color and texture variations in the boards to enhance the natural wood look. It advises mixing boards before laying and observing the specified laying direction. The document stresses the importance of accounting for dimensional tolerances and using appropriate tools to prevent warping. Boards should be cut at right angles, and all cut edges chamfered. Rubber-containing materials should not be exposed to high thermal loads, and the recommended laying temperature is between 5° - 25°C.
General Information
Providing shade for the terrace is recommended to protect against overheating and UV radiation. The document also mentions the importance of following the construction plan to maintain warranty claims and ensure proper installation.
Article Overview
This section lists various components and accessories required for the decking system, including fastening screws, groove bridges, retaining bands, locking clamps, and more. It provides specifications for each item, such as dimensions and materials.
Deck Covering Options
The document describes different decking board options, including CLASSIC, PREMIUM, PREMIUM PLUS, and SIGNUM, with details on surface textures, color gradients, and gap specifications. It also mentions flame retardant properties and national technical approvals for certain products.
Construction Variants
Construction heights and methods are detailed, with emphasis on ensuring a minimum 2% slope and adequate ventilation. The document provides guidance on laying concrete kerbstones and arranging construction beams, including the use of rubber pads to compensate for slope differences.
Environmental Certification
The document highlights the Cradle to Cradle Certified® status of megawood® products, indicating their compliance with sustainable construction and green building criteria.
Specifications and Preparatory Steps
Ensure all construction beams (CBs) are screw-fixed at the start and end of the boards. For rhombus profiles, maintain an 8 mm gap at joints and use additional CB pieces for support. Incorporate joints in the substructure to align with rhombus profiles, maintaining an 8 mm vertical joint spacing. Specific dimensions and recesses are required for different CB sizes (40 x 60 mm and 80 x 60 mm).
Mounting Procedures
Use locking edge clamps and retaining bands for securing boards. Ensure the first board is correctly aligned and use distance keepers for subsequent rows. Regularly check alignment and secure locking clamps lightly to avoid twisting. For the final row, cut CBs with a 10 mm overhang and chamfer edges.
Rhombus Profile Installation
Prepare additional substructure elements for CB 80 x 60 mm. Attach rhombus profiles flush to CB ends and maintain a 10 mm gap pattern. Use specific screw sizes (M8 x 80 mm and M8 x 40 mm) for fixing profiles. Ensure proper ventilation and gap spacing for longevity.
Mounting on Concrete Kerbstone
Follow planning principles and use appropriate construction beams. Maintain recommended slopes and distances for drainage and stability.
Additional Construction Notes
Use cross bracing on solid ground with rubber pads for stability. Ensure proper ventilation with grille systems for ground-level decks. Follow specific guidelines for mitre cuts and brick bonding patterns.
Care and Maintenance
Conduct basic cleaning twice a year, ideally at temperatures above 15°C. Use water, brushes, and specific cleaning products for stubborn stains. Natural fibre inclusions may occur but can be mechanically removed if necessary.

GENERAL INFORMATION • The basis for all installation variants is the megawood® construction plan! No warranty in case of deviations from the construction plan or when using non-original megawood® articles! • In accordance with the principles of constructive wood protection, the decking boards should be laid lengthwise with a sufficient slope so that water is always directed away from the deck. If these instructions are followed, you will reduce the build-up of organic substances, water stains and waterlogging. • For deck structures with an open gap, a minimum slope of 2% is recommended. For structures...

Care and Cleaning CARE INSTRUCTIONS After the successful construction of your megawood® deck, you should do a basic cleaning to remove production dust. A slope of at least 2% during construction helps to improve water drainage and minimise deposits. For a well-kept appearance, we recommend a basic cleaning twice a year, or more often if necessary. Temperatures above 15°C are ideal to make cleaning easier. Please proceed as follows: 1. Sweep dry, loose dirt from the decking. 2. Water the entire deck sufficiently and keep it damp for at least 15 minutes. 3. Clean the decking with water and a standard...
