Abstract: A device, system and method for installing decking are described. A track for decking has a base element, a first snap-fit element coupled to the base element, and a second snap-fit element coupled to the base element, the second snap-fit element opposing the first snap-fit element. At least one of the first snap-fit element or the second snap-fit element has an inward protrusion to engage a recess in a side of a decking board, whereby the first and second snap-fit elements are retain the decking board.

Abstract: A system and method for installing decking are described. One embodiment includes a method of installing decking. The method includes aligning a track for decking relative to a joist. The method further includes attaching the track to the joist, and snapping a decking board into a retaining portion of the track after attaching. In the system, the track has a base element with at least one attachment element for attaching the track to a joist, a first snap-fit element, and a second snap-fit element. The first snap-fit element is coupled to a first end portion of the base element, and the second snap-fit element is coupled to a second end portion of the base element. The snap-fit elements are configured to retain at least one decking board.
