  • Publication number: 20060283122
    Abstract: A deck system includes a plurality of parallel deck boards which are disposed transversely across a plurality of widely spaced joists. Each pair of adjacent deck boards is fixedly secured to each joist using the combination of a deck clip and a fastener. The deck clip is a unitary plastic member which includes a substantially cylindrical stem and a substantially annular head which are integrally formed together in coaxial alignment with one another, the stem and head together defining a central longitudinal bore. The annular head of the deck clip is sized and shaped to frictionally fit within a slot formed in opposing side edges of the pair of adjacent deck boards. The fastener is preferably in the form of a screw which is sized and shaped to be driven through the longitudinal bore in the deck clip and into the joist, a tapered shelf formed in the deck clip immediately surrounding the bore serving to limit the extent which the fastener can be driven.
