a question?
Our landscaping experts have the answers
1. Aluminium or timber joists: which option should you choose?
Aluminium joists offer a number of advantages over timber. Aluminium performs very well in terms of longevity (being rot-proof), and our joists are anti-corrosion treated, lightweight and easily transported and installed. If you want a durable solution that’s easy to maintain and extremely stable, Jouplast aluminium joists are an excellent choice.
However, if your preference is for a more economical option and a more natural appearance to accompany timber decking boards, then timber joists may be more appropriate, as long as you are prepared to carry out regular maintenance.
2. How many joists do you need for your terrace?
Although we can tell you the approximate number of joists you will need per m2 based on your choice of terrace surface, it is not possible to quantify the precise number of aluminium joists required, except on a project-by-project basis. Nevertheless, we can say with certainty that :
- For a private garden terrace using H/55mm joists, the recommended centreline spacing distance between riser pedestals is 80cm
- Using H/27mm joists, the recommended centreline spacing distance between riser pedestals is 50cm
Centreline spacing is the distance between joists. For a precise calculation, you can send us the details of your project, but you will soon be able to make the same calculation using the Jouplast® app.
3. How to ensure the durability of your aluminium joist terrace?
The durability of a terrace built using aluminium joists depends on a number of criteria :
- For maximum durability, we recommend preparing the ground correctly before beginning the project to ensure that the surface is level and stable enough to ensure a long life for the riser pedestal installation
- Build your terrace in accordance with our installation instructions and advice
- Lay the joists on Jouplast packers or riser pedestals to prevent rising damp
- Use joist protection tape, etc.
