Key Considerations When Designing a Pool Deck Framing Layout
A round pool's framing depends on angled connections and individually cut joists and girders rather than the uniform on-center spacing a straight-edge deck uses, so field measurements matter more here than on a typical rectangular layout. In ArcSite, you can adjust this framing layout's angles and cut lengths for your own pool's dimensions.
