    <title>topic How to build outdoor decking 800mm height with steps? in Outdoor</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;I am planning to build an outdoor decking on one side of a swim spa, it will be located on the right hand side of the pool. The decking will be on a concrete base and approx 800mm heigh, approx 2100mm wide and approx 6000mm long with steps on one end. I need some advice on how to build it and what material to use. I was planning to cover it with sinthetic grass.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Cheers Andrew&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello &lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/30732"&gt;@Rufo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's a pleasure to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about building a deck.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I suggest having a look at this guide - &lt;A href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/How-To/How-to-build-a-low-level-deck/ba-p/45715" target="_blank"&gt;How to build a low-level deck&lt;/A&gt; by &lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3777"&gt;@Adam_W&lt;/a&gt;. Although your deck is a little bit higher, the guide covers the basic steps you need to take into consideration when planning your decking frame. I recommend visiting your local council first and looking at the rules and regulations about building a deck near a swimming pool. Because your deck is quite large and is relatively high, it's important to find out if this particular deck size will need a permit.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I always suggest drawing your deck frame with pen and paper. This will give you a better idea of timber spacing and in which direction the decking panels are going in. Will you be doing a picture frame or will you be finishing it plain? These are some of the things you'll need to consider while drawing your plan. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Usually, timber size is dictated by the space available. But in this case, you've got heaps of space, I suggest using 140 x 45mm Framing MGP10 Untreated Pine which is a common size for deck framing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Here are some links to ideas and inspiration: &lt;A href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/Top-Ideas/Top-10-most-popular-deck-projects/ba-p/30303" target="_blank"&gt;Top 10 most popular deck projects &lt;/A&gt;and &lt;A href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/Top-Ideas/Inspiring-low-level-deck-builds/ba-p/79223" target="_blank"&gt;Inspiring low-level deck builds&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
