- Two equal 6-foot framing bays across the 12-foot depth

Key Considerations When Designing a 10x12 Deck Layout
At 120 square feet, a 10x12 deck still needs the same 16-inch on-center spacing a larger deck would use, since joist spacing is set by load, not footprint size. If your local supplier stocks a different board size than the 2x6 shown here, ArcSite lets you swap it in and the spacing updates with it.
