Composite lumber is not especially slippery when compared to traditional wooden deck boards.
i have a 1250 square foot deck and need to figure out how many linear feet of decking material I need. the boards are 6 X 10
Area of each board = 8*0.145 = 1.16 metres2. Area to be covered = 7*7 = 49 metres2. Number of boards required = Roundup(49/1.16) = Roundup(42.2) = 43. This assumes that all offcuts are used. That may not be possible if any of the offcuts are shorter than the distance between the supporting joists.
If you wanted to describe the length and breadth of an irregular shape you would find the maximum length and breadth. You could sandwich the object between two flat boards, and measure the distance between the boards. Then rotate the object 90o and do it again, for the breadth.
It depends on the size of the boards.
Yes, plastic and composite decking can be screwed directly to wood framing members.
The answer will depend on the width of the decking boards.
136x32x100 - the gap between the boards
Can composite wood be straightend
Yes
To achieve a faultless finish on your new deck, be sure to stagger the joints when you install the deck boards. When nailing the deck boards on to the frame, be sure to leave even spacing between the boards. Most experts recommend 1/8 inch between two inch boards. To avoid measuring over and over, simply place a 16d nail between the boards to keep them in place and insure you have the right measurement.
Composite lumber is not especially slippery when compared to traditional wooden deck boards.
Spacing between exterior deck floorboards allows for proper drainage and ventilation to prevent moisture accumulation, which can lead to rot and decay. It also helps to reduce the likelihood of cupping, warping, and splitting in the boards due to fluctuations in temperature and humidity.

Standard wood floor joist spacing is 16" on center.
YOU CAN MAKE THE BOARDS LAST LONGER IF YOU USE A GOOD WATER SEALER AND THE RANGE IS FROM 10 TO 20 YEARS
Lineal metres = Square metres/Width of the boards.
