This course is no longer active
Sponsored by StoneDeks System
Learning Objectives:
- Specify a stone deck with a engineered polymer support system by referencing design tables and the local building code.
- Explain how the engineered polymer support system is installed on both the deck area and stairs to ensure a safe and durable installation.
- Identify issues that may be of concern in retrofit applications, and recall the measures that must be taken to prepare the deck for a stone surface.
- List the steps involved in rooftop and ground installations, detailing how they prevent flexing, heaving, and sinking of the pavers.
- Summarize the issues that can occur with wood or composite systems and how they affect safety and performance.

A stone deck is a stunning, low-maintenance alternative to a wood or composite deck. This course takes a detailed look at the engineered polymer structural grate support system used in the creation of stone decks. Common issues with wood and composite decks are presented. The installation of the engineered polymer support system in new and retrofit or remodel construction, ground applications, and commercial rooftop applications is discussed.
