Maximum overhang for ModWood decking boards

The maximum allowable overhang for ModWood decking boards in a decking application are as follows –

  • 88 x 23mm     45 mm
  • 137 x 23mm   70 mm
  • 137 x 32mm   70 mm
  • Flame Shield   Nil

ModWood Fixing Tip

As ModWood expands in heat and sun, to avoid building stress into your deck and having possible lengthways shrinkage, it is best to fix your decking boards when the ambient temperature is less than 25 degrees celsius and when the boards are not sitting in full sun. ModWoods co-efficient of thermal linear expansion equates to approximately 3mm expansion and contraction in a 40 degree temperature variation for a 5 metre length. ModWoods coefficient of thermal linear expansion is 15 x 10-6mm/mm per degrees celsius.
